Hi All Working in open source communities and standard organizations for multiple years now and specifically in all layers pertinent to ONAP, is in my humble opinion, the background needed to be successful in this important role for the ONAP community. I’ve gathered lots of experience serving as the OPEN-O TSC Vice chair and Architecture chair. I’m proud of the initiatives I’ve led in that community including the initiation of the VNF SDK project that was adopted by the ONAP community too! The VNF SDK was the first open source proposed project to fully include VNFs in a MANO community!
The VNF SDK project is designed to address the painful on-boarding issue and it emphasized the importance of getting VNFs that are in tune with the MANO orchestration as part of the initial design vs. an afterthought. Specifically related to this standards and SDO coordinator position, I’ve also proposed the adoption of a unified, industry-agreed Data Models to enable higher levels of MANO automation and reduction of the VNF vendor’s labor. This has been done in collaboration with all community vendor and considering and integrating the opinions and inputs of multiple VNF vendors. Positions on level of automation and cloud readiness, are one of the topics that may separate different candidates for this position. We firmly believe that working with relevant standard organizations to promote highest level of automation and agility, are essential to enable Telco to best compete with best cloud efficiencies, for long term NFV success. However, my unequivocal commit is to represent the TSC position whatever it may be! The time left before the vote is short. So I hope this write up provides some idea of the motivation, proven capabilities and proposed directions Additional relevant background · OPEN-O - multiple contributions to the Membership agreement that was used to guide the ONAP’s membership agreement. Active participant in data modeling and standard interactions. · ODL – serve on the board and was on the TSC in last 2 years. intitiated and drove the Multi Writer work to respolve the issue of multiple projects simultaneously intercting with a vSwitch. Inititiator of the S3P (Stability, Security, Scalabilitya and Perfomance) as a mesure of “readiness” for an open Source project – adopted by ONAP as well · SFC – working with many of the industry and the community to look for a broad industry agreement for top to bottom SFC · VNF Data Model – created the initiative for Data Model convergence and industry agreement including multi party public efforts open to all where interoprability and use of the VNF SDK tools created for OPEN-O was demonstrated (e.g. public demo at MWC and recently at L123 NFV World Congress) · DMTF board member 2008-2010 · IETF – co editor of the NSH (SFC related) draft · At Intel I lead the stack architrcture MANO through OpenStack, ODL, vSwitches and the server platform. This provides an opportunity Beyond experience, have demonstraed an un biased handling of technical issues! It is important to note that, we at Intel, do not ship products competing with the key vendors in the ONAP community, we are positioned to handle any potential disagreement in an even handed way!
