Ramesh,

Thanks for more data in the slide 4. However this does not really answer my 
question.
The question is which abstraction(s), you suggest, should be supported by the 
“external controller”  For example, which (types of) operations the “external 
controller“ is supposed to support?
A good example is slide 16 showing that the SD-WAN controller supports Presto 
and Adagio in case of MEF, which already provides some hints. There may be 
several additional abstractions supported by the SD-WAN controller – all right, 
just need to list them.
Then let me ask same question about so called “External Controller”: what 
operations the “external controller“ is supposed to support? The list of forums 
does not help. Is it slide 6 to help? Probably not. What is “Domain Controller” 
e.g. in case of the RAN domain? What kind of RAN abstraction it is assumed to 
support? Where is it defined?

Thanks
Vladimir

Vladimir, Per your question, please find some current/emerging standards for 
domain abstractions in slide 4 and other parts of the deck.

Dear Colleagues,
The question “what is the abstraction of external controller” is another form 
of the question “what the external controller is” or, if you will, “what this 
discussion is about”.
Until this question is answered, how anything can be done about the “external 
controller”?
The original presentation on SD-WAN refers to several particular abstractions 
of the SD-WAN controller that should be covered. If these abstractions are well 
defined (I did not check), for SD-WAN that’s enough. However extending this 
further, necessarily raises the question how we define the class of controllers 
to be covered i.e. which abstraction we are going to follow.
Thanks
Vladimir

Hi All,

Thanks for all the good questions and suggestions on this proposal. As 
promised, we will share updated slides tomm. But to provide some brief comments 
below on a couple of the questions/suggestions.
-          What is the abstraction to the external controller: The answer 
depends on the service domain, don’t think there is any universal abstraction. 
There is work already in the industry to define abstractions for specific 
domains such as sd-wan, sd-access, sd-optical etc., and we will share some of 
these references but some have been shared by others already
-          Single or multiple integration points: What we have described via 
the requirements is the needed interaction/information sharing between the ONAP 
components and the external controller.  This interaction could happen over a 
single or multiple integration points. I think this is a discussion/decision 
with the architecture team and broader community.
Ramesh.

Hi Maopeng, all,

I let External Controller functionality proposal answer the raised questions.
As to the project’s impact, as we are not talking about SD-WAN’s –only External 
Controller now, I believe that also project impacts should be taken separately 
not within the scope of SD-WAN only, rather generalized.

Alla,

If you intend to use the External Controller for any control loop use cases 
then you will need Policy.

With that being said, the request from the Policy team is a single common 
Controller SDK to be implemented by all controllers for performing any type of 
action on a VM/VNF. And as simplistic an API as possible. The current API 
implementations  for SO/APPC/VFC are overly complicated and require too much 
interaction with A&AI.

Thanks,

Pam

Subject: [Onap-arc] External controller support in Beijing Release

Hi all,

We (Usecase subcommittee) would like to initiate a discussion with a different 
involved projects on potential implementation of External controller in Beijing 
Release.
Next week, we need to present and get a view from the following affected 
projects:


  1.  AAI, ESI
  2.  SDC, VNF SDK
  3.  Modelling
  4.  SO
  5.  VID
  6.  External API
  7.   DCAE, HOLMES
  8.  CLAMP
And, of course, from the architecture and modelling subcommittees.

(Ramesh, please add any potentially affected projects I may have forgotten).

One way is to schedule a new meeting. The alternative way is to ask Chris for 
Architecture subcommittee meeting’s time and discuss it there ☺

What do you think? Chris, is there any possibility to host this discussion next 
week?

Best regards,

Alla Goldner
