Meeting Minutes/Agenda Approval: Approved
-
User Scenarios of Pain Points and Priorities by Steven
-
Steven noted that expansions and comments have been added to the Pain
Points and a separate VNF Onboarding page
<https://wiki.opnfv.org/pages/viewpage.action?spaceKey=EUAG&title=VNF+Onboarding+and+Deployment>
has been created on the EUAG’s wiki.
-
A question was asked about the difference between “provider” and
“operator” and if they have different requirements. A discussion then
followed about the need to define these terms so the ecosystem operates
from the same understanding. A suggestion was made that the Polestar WG
could take this up as a future action item.
-
In the VNF Options section, a question was raised regarding the VNF
Package being a “single binary object.” Steven noted that replacing
“binary” with “executable” perhaps helps clarify the meaning.
-
A question was asked to define the OPNFV community as an actor. The
attendees discussed whether this means OPNFV has a role to play
in hosting
technical validation of platform capability that enables VNFs rather than
validating VNF packages in the market. A comment was made that if VNF
onboarding is a feature in future OPNFV releases, OPNFV will also have a
role in certifying that VNFs work with a particular release. The
attendees
generally agreed that it would be helpful for VNF vendors if operators
start to outline what the processes are going to be, even though some are
more business-oriented and do not apply to the OPNFV system.
Such outlines
would inform the vendors of the expectations and scope.
-
Margaret polled attendees’ plans to attend a F2F meeting at ODL
Summit in Seattle to further discuss this. She also mentioned there was
some overlap between what the MANO WG and the Polestar WG are
doing. Bryan
confirmed there are some overlaps and will clarify them for
Margaret after
the call.
