Performance

  • Create performance improvement plan.

Performance test results for Casablanca here: Platform maturity: performance/stability test plan.

Identify bottlenecks as a start for improvement plan.



Estimation:

  • Improvement plan: 1-2 days of work.

Security

Project level requirements

  • Level 2: CII Silver badge, plus:

    • All internal/external system communications shall be able to be encrypted.

    • All internal/external service calls shall have common role-based access control and authorization using CADI framework.


ONAP Platform-level requirements per release 

Level 2: 70 % of the projects passing silver 

  • with non-silver projects:

    •  completed passing level and 80% towards silver level

    • internal/external system communications shall be able to be encrypted

Encryption not implemented for:

  • InternalServlet (isAuthorizedForInternal)

  • RouteServlet (isAuthorizedForInternal)

  • PublishServlet

  • StatisticsServlet

  • LogServlet


Access control/authorization not implemented.

CII Silver badge

The project MUST document what the user can and cannot expect in terms of security from the software produced
by the project. The project MUST identify the security requirements that the software is intended to meet and an
assurance case that justifies why these requirements are met.

CII Badging Program

Currently DR on Passing level.

Data Router (DR) API Guide



Estimation:

  • Encryption: 2-3 days of work. (Fairly repetitive work. update classes

    • InternalServlet (isAuthorizedForInternal)

    • RouteServlet (isAuthorizedForInternal)

    • PublishServlet

    • StatisticsServlet

    • LogServlet

    )

  • Role-based access: 1 sprint

Manageability

1

2

  • A component can be independently upgraded without impacting operation interacting components

  • Component configuration to be externalized in a common fashion across ONAP projects

  • All application logging to adhere to ONAP Application Logging Specification v1.2

  • Implement guidelines for a minimal container footprint

Currently implemented:

  • Log4J (to log events and internal logging) and

  • EELF (for logging API calls) .

Considering eelf is one of the suggested logging frameworks for the spec, and we have nothing implemented for slf4j, we should ideally use only eelf for our logging purposes and replace any log4j logging with eelf



Guidance for Implementation



Estimation:

  • Use one Logging system: 5 days of work (35 files to update x several line each)

  • Logging to adhere to ONAP Application Logging Specification v1.2: two MDCs implemented (RequestId and InvocationId.
    Nine more to be implemented:

InstanceID
ServiceName
PartnerName
StatusCode
ResponseCode
ResponseDesc
Severity
ServerFQDN
ClientIPAddress)

Update the format of the logging to conform to v1.2 spec.

Some additional work required to provide log data to Audit Log and Metric Log. 1 sprint of work.

  • Implement guidelines for a minimal container footprint: 1-2 days

  • Component configuration to be externalized: 1-2 days




More information on the levels: Platform Maturity Requirements









Performance

  • Level 0: no performance testing done

  • Level 1: baseline performance criteria identified and measured  (such as response time, transaction/message rate, latency, footprint, etc. to be defined on per component)

  • Level 2: performance improvement plan created 

  • Level 3: performance improvement plan implemented for 1 release (improvement measured for equivalent functionality & equivalent hardware)



Stability

  • Level 0: none beyond release requirements

  • Level 1: 72 hour component-level soak test (random test transactions with 80% code coverage; steady load)

  • Level 2: 72 hour platform-level soak test (random test transactions with 80% code coverage; steady load)

  • Level 3: track record over 6 months of reduced defect rate



Resiliency

  • Level 0: no redundancy

  • Level 1: support manual failure detection & rerouting or recovery within a single site; tested to complete in 30 minutes

  • Level 2: support automated failure detection & rerouting 

    • within a single geographic site

    • stateless components: establish baseline measure of failed requests for a component failure within a site 

    • stateful components: establish baseline of data loss for a component failure within a site

  • Level 3: support automated failover detection & rerouting 

    • across multiple sites 

    • stateless components 

      • improve on # of failed requests for component failure within a site 

      • establish baseline for failed requests for site failure 

    • stateful components 

      • improve on data loss metrics for component failure within a site 

      • establish baseline for data loss for site failure

Security

Project-level requirements

  • Level 0: None

  • Level 1: CII Passing badge

    • Including no critical and high known vulnerabilities > 60 days old

  • Level 2: CII Silver badge, plus:

    • All internal/external system communications shall be able to be encrypted.

    • All internal/external service calls shall have common role-based access control and authorization using CADI framework.

  • Level 3: CII Gold badge 

ONAP Platform-level requirements per release 

  • Level 1: 70 % of the projects passing the level 1 

    • with the non-passing projects reaching 80% passing level

    • Non-passing projects MUST pass specific cryptography criteria outlined by the Security Subcommittee*

  • Level 2: 70 % of the projects passing silver 

    • with non-silver projects:

      •  completed passing level and 80% towards silver level
