That mediation layer should be designed abstract enough to support longer term 
of providing standard interfaces, ideally. :-)

Short term ? Intermediate layer is REQUIRED.

Although longer term ? We shall define standard interfaces so that vendors 
(VMMs, Cloud etc?) can support this going forward.

In OPEN-O community, we supported it by introducing multi-VIM project to handle 
it.

It?s the same cloud infrastructure but not the same process flow.

Let?s assume for a moment you have an ONAP component which runs on 3 VMs for 
fault tolerance (that?s not what we have in the demo setup but what you would 
have in production). In an ideal world you should be able to kill one of the 
VMs, spin up another one of the same type and the system should be happy again.

Today in reality you will have to go into the VM (sometimes more then one) 
after you spin it up and run various commands to ensure that new VM will be 
properly integrated with the 2 other once as well as ONAP overall. Not only do 
you have to run some commands but you will have to run different once depending 
on the component.

Same is true for auto scaling.

So as from the cloud layer it?s all the same the cloud layer is not enough.

The way to fix that of course is to improve the code in each component so that 
this becomes fully automatic.  The lack of that is a known shortcoming of the 
current implementation.

Thanks, Oliver. Absolutely got 1. Below and agreed. Didn?t get 2. Though, i.e. 
how every component is different when it comes to resiliency features. 
Ultimately, if it?s same underlying cloud infrastructure, right?

Dhananjay,

I think there are two dimensions ONAP can be improved in this regard.

1. Multi cloud support: To support multiple cloud technologies we not only have 
to modify the startup automation (heat template) but also adjust the components 
which work directly with the cloud orchestrator which are MSO, DCAE, App-C and 
Robotframework for every cloud technology we onboard. So to manage that 
effectively we should introduce a mediation layer between those 4 components 
and the underlying cloud technology. There are multiple options out there so 
that?s not something we have to build from scratch just something we have to 
pick and integrate.

2. The individual components are still very ?special?. What I mean with that is 
that each component has it?s own way to provide resilience, disaster recovery 
and scaling. So if you want to scale out or fail over e.g. the SDN-C controller 
you do something different then when you scale out DCAE etc? Those difference 
are visible on the cloud layer which makes this more difficult then it has to 
be. So we should figure out how to make this more homogeneous.

Fully agree, Catherine.

In addition, should we also consider making ONAP agnostic of underlying 
virtualization layer e.g. OpenStack, VmWare, OpenVIM  etc . Ideally, if cloud 
native approach is used then this should be taken care of.

Subject: [onap-discuss] Support ONAP on multiple OS/Openstacks?

Good morning all,

I would like to start a new thread in order to understand if there is a need to 
certify ONAP on multiple OS/Openstacks.

OS
Currently ONAP is running on Ubuntu 14.04 (target to move to Ubuntu 16.04).
Open-O is running on CentOS but I understand from Helen Yunxia (Huawei) that it 
should not be an issue to run it on Ubuntu.
Redhat was not considered from a certification perspective due to license cost.

>From an architecture perspective, it is important that ONAP remains OS agnostic
The only constraint on the OS is that it should support an Openstack version

OpenStack
I have noticed that people are trying to deploy ONAP using different OpenStack 
release series (i.e. Icehouse, Mitaka, Ocata, Kilo, etc)
Although I would like to recommend that we only focus on the release series 
that are not EOL or will be soon EOL as an Openstack baseline for ONAP,
We should collect what has already been validated by the ONAP community and 
what they agree to support

Any additional thoughts?

Best regards
Catherine
