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!
