Overview

The Open Networking Summit - EU 2019 event offers two "un-conference" areas for topic discussions, small-team breakouts etc.  We call this an "Unconference" because it's less about pre-conceived and pre-arranged formal presentations and instead allows for discussion topics of interest to "spring up" either closer to the event or at the event itself.

...

The current Un-conference Schedule can be found here: https://wiki.lfnetworking.org/x/UgMiAQ
Rooms are booked on a first-come, first-serve basis
If you wish to add a topic to the schedule, please post it below.
Unconference Rooms are located at Flanders Convention Center: Gorilla 4 Gorilla 5

  • Short Description:   Discuss automation requirements for MEC during the whole life cycle of MEC application. 

  • Detailed Description:  In this session ,i will introduce the whole MEC system with 5G Core.  Typically there will be a lot of facilities around MEC system. For instance,  local DNS system, hardware  or software firewall(if traffic from internet into MEC system , FW is needed).  When application is on boarding in MEC system, openstack or kubernetes will allocate virtual machine and container for applicaiton automatically. But the application can't supply the service right now. 
    Automation requirements for MEC  to speed up the service provision procedure:
    1.  Set UPF rule automatically(traffic steering) 
    2.  Set FW  rule automatically(traffic rule)
    3.  Set DNS record automatically (DNS resolving)
    4.  others...

  • Short Description:  A Look at OPX Architecture and Latest Release

  • Detailed Description: Open Switch is a project dedicated to making a solid Open Source option for a complete Network platform supporting the community and providing networking innovations.  There is a focus on making a completely open source NOS providing a solid (Linux Based Package approach) allowing the installation of Open Switch on a Debian based platforms.  In this demo/workshop we will go through the architecture and highlight multiple applications build with OPX, look at the latest release of OPX,  and provide an opportunity to interact with OPX via VM. Come learn how you can integrate your white-box NOS solution with your upstream applications with ONAP, ODL etc..

  • Short Description:  CNTT and CNCF TUG Common API Framework

  • Detailed Description: In this session, I would like to invite people from the CNTT group and CNCF TUG group to come together to work on a Common API Framework so that we can have a common North and southbound APIs for both VNF/CNF vendors/users and NFVI vendors/users. The intent of this session will be have an open discussion to drive a consensus so that we can align on the API framework that would work for both VNFs as well CNFs (cloud native) so that we can implement the reference architecture as specified by CNTT group. This should allow the transition of VNFs to CNFs smooth. Additionally, this will help build validation framework that works for all types of workloads.
  • Topic Leader: Sukhdev Kapur(sukhdev@juniper.net)
  • Estimated Audience Size (15-50):
  • Interested In Attending: If you are interested in this discussion and would like to participate in it, please add your name and email here (one name/email per line please). We'll use this information when building the schedule so that we minimize overbooking people where possible.

  • Short Description:  Improving ONAP interoperability & Adoption with API Fabric

  • Detailed Description: This sessions will present a solution to simplify the consumption of APIs in ONAP and to expose operational APIs while improving interoperability with 3rd party systems. We will present how the API Fabric provides a simplified abstraction layer, exposing standard APIs, which improves the usability for end users and speeds up the productization of ONAP.

    The API fabric provides capabilities for onboarding new APIs, with plugins to convert to standard APIs, and provides complete API lifecycle management including subscription and transaction control & monitoring. The exposed manageable façade layer simplifies ONAP’s consumable interface for operations, application development or business level monitoring, avoiding deep integration with individual ONAP components.

  • Short Description:  Blockchain based Telecom Solutions (Hyperledger Telecom SIG)

  • Detailed Description:
    • The Hyperledger Telecom Special Interest Group is focused on technical and business-level conversations about appropriate use cases for blockchain technology in the Telecom industry. In this session we  will show a new approach for Inter-Carrier Settlement and Service Level Agreement use cases on Hyperledger technology to make the process more efficient and cost effective for Telecom Operators.

  • Short Description:  A step towards validating ONAP Control Loops

  • Detailed Description: This is continuation of discussion started in DDF meeting in Sweden on ONAP Control loop validation.
    • As ONAP is currently implementing and improving the control loop framework (model driven control loops), we would like to propose a consistent validation of control loops by reusing existing mechanism, we would like to discuss the following topics :
    • try and validate control loops flow
      in an automated fashion, with the intention to serve multiple goals :
      - decouple control loop flows from instantiation flows in order to speed up validation.
      - lower the learning curve for people to understand control loops
      - identify quickly breaking changes that would hurt the control loop as a whole
      - create a framework to allow for proving control loop behavior

  • Short Description: VNF Testing standardiztion under TMF API

  • Detailed Description: TMF test API team and ONAP VNF Test Platfrom (VTP) team has found synergy between their API specification and investigated the mapping between these API. This would help in bringing the standardization in VNF testing in ONAP. As part of this discussion, following topics will be covered:

    • Need for the VNF testing standarization
    • Mapping between VTP API and TMF test API specs
    • Future of this TMF API alignment

  • Short Description: ONAP as a unified MEC-in-NFV Orchestrator

  • Detailed Description: In the latest ETSI MEC architecture specification, there is a generic reference architecture and a MEC-in-NFV variant. We would like to discuss the MEC-in-NFV variant and the possibility of ONAP serving as the combined orchestrator (NFVO MEAO). Also, given the rich functionality of various ONAP controllers, we would like to discuss how ONAP could possibly interface with both external MEPM-V components or alternatively subsume this functionality within ONAP. This is quite similar to how ONAP deals with VNFMs — they can be external or internal. There is no pre-planned agenda, and we would like to have an open discussion on this topic.
