Architecture - (Amar/Heather)

  • ONAP Honolulu vs Istanbul. Current testing with Honolulu. Continue with Honolulu, then move to Istanbul

  • Consider other RAN vendors

    • Target completion by 11/26

    • Networking Slicing Meeting last week including security efforts, breaking out into a separate meeting series. Working toward service assurance kickoff based on Magma capability. Meeting Details Here: TBD

  • LF Edge (Amar, Ike, Joe)

    • 09/07 Heather- Use case discussion with TSC upcoming in September. Ike can also provide insights.

    • Goal: Private network slide to integrate with IoT use cases (eventually). Which projects involved, which integrations needed with other projects, etc. Volunteers welcome to contribute, join discussion on the TSC. 

    • 9/7: Modeling 5G Super Blueprints roughly on Akraino blueprints template (5G integration work ongoing). Ike to provide links. 

    • Any other LF Edge integration at this time?

      • 9/7: EdgeX (tomorrow a presentation with customer example), Open Horizon?

      • Fledge, EVE (Energy use case)

    • IoT/EdgeX possibilities. Ike: Suggest contacting Jim White, EdgeX TSC Chair. Brandon to follow up. Akraino has more than 20 blueprints across many areas including 5G integration. (insights on 5G Core). Brandon to follow up Energy/EVE/Fledge Communities.

    • Prabhjot: PCI blueprint could be a value add in terms of service assurance (includes ONAP/EMCO), MANO, cloud provider integration. Good documentation coming soon. Oleg/Tina, TSC Chair (Akraino). 

  • Anuket (Amar, Heather)

    • 9/21: We have just deployed ONAP on Anuket at UNH! Congrats to the team. Docs to follow. 

    • Anuket (Heather)- deployment- 2 servers at UHN. ONAP on 1, orchestrate MAGMA on other. 

    • Kali Release RI2 on UNH Servers, deploying the Magma Core

    • 2 instances of Kuberef (1 per server) being installed. We will use one to host ONAP and one to deploy Magma Core onto. Confirming support for Kubevirt/Virtlet, we need this since one of the Magma functions is still a VM.

    • Status: Servers are up and we have asked the Kuberef team to install pending instructions from Sriram on how to access the servers.

  • ORAN Alliance / ORAN SC (Trishan)

    • What is the time frame where ORAN might participate in 5G SBP?

  • Other? Feel free to add here.

  • Heather: Integrated CI/CD (down the road). 

  • Ike: M2M standards + ETSI use cases. Ike to share more information, working with companies in this space. 



New Bridge: Invite and New Zoom bridge starting 11/30
