The first release was Amsterdam and subsequent major release will be named using city names. * Release Name: Beijing * Release Version: 2.0.0 * Release Date: June 7, 2018 Getting Started With ONAP ========================== Summary ------- ONAP provides a comprehensive platform for real-time, policy-driven service orchestration and automation including virtual network functions and applications instantiation and configuration, but also physical network functions configuration. ONAP will enable software, network, IT and cloud providers and developers to rapidly automate new services and support complete life cycle management. By unifying member resources, ONAP will accelerate the development of a vibrant ecosystem around a globally shared architecture and implementation for network automation-with an open standards focus-faster than any one product could on its own. Functionality ------------- **Portal** - a single, consistent user experience for both design timer and run time environments, based on the user’s role. **Design Time Framework** - a comprehensive development environment with tools, techniques, and repositories for defining/describing resources, services, and products: - Service Design and Creation (SDC) provides tools, techniques, and repositories to define/simulate/certify system assets as well as their associated processes and policies. - A VNF Software Development Kit (VNFSDK) and VNF Validation Program (VVP) with tools for VNF supplier packaging and validation. - Policy Creation (POLICY) deals with conditions, requirements, constraints, attributes, or needs that must be provided, maintained, and/or enforced. - Closed Loop Automation Management Platform (CLAMP) provides a method for designing and managing control loops. - Optimization Framework (OOF) provides a policy-driven and model-driven framework for creating optimization applications. **Runtime Framework** - The runtime execution framework executes the rules and policies distributed by the design and creation environment and Controllers that manage resources corresponding to their assigned controlled domain: - Service Orchestrator (SO) executes the specified BPMN processes and automates sequences of activities, tasks, rules and policies needed for on-demand creation, modification or removal of network, application or infrastructure services and resources. SO is especially able to drive any OpenStack-based cloud platform. - Software Defined Network Controller (SDNC) executes network configuration for cloud computing resources and network. - Application Controller (APPC) executes Virtual Network Functions (VNF) configurations and lifecycle management operations. - Virtual Function Controller (VF-C) is responsible for lifecycle management of virtual network functions and network services based on VNF using VNF Manager. - Active and Available Inventory (A&AI) provides real-time views of a system’s resources, services, products and their relationships with each other. **Closed-Loop Automation** -- Design -> Create -> Collect -> Analyze > Detect -> Publish -> Respond: - Data Collection, Analytics and Events (DCAE) collects events, performance, usage and publishes information to policy that executes the rules to perform closed loop actions. - Holmes provides alarm correlation and analysis for Telecom cloud infrastructure and services, including servers, cloud infrastructure, VNFs and Network Services. - Common Services - operational services for all ONAP components including activity logging, reporting, common data layer, access control, resiliency, multisite state coordination, credential/secret management and software lifecycle management. **Microservices Support** - ONAP Operation Manager (OOM) use kubernetes and Helm to manage ONAP components. - Microservices Bus (MSB) provides service registration/discovery, external API gateway, internal API gateway, client software development kit (SDK), and Swagger SDK. Project Specific Release Notes ============================== ONAP releases are specified by a list of project artifact versions in a :ref:`manifest`. Each project provides detailed :ref:`release notes` and prepends to these if/when any updated versions the project team believes are compatible with a major release are made available. .. index:: Download Download & Install ================== There are 3 approaches to install ONAP: * Installation using Kubernetes (aka OOM). Recommended method * Installation using Heat template * Advanced installation to install individual components Documentation ============= ONAP Beijing Release provides multiple documents including the following: * A high level :ref:`architecture view` of how components relate to each other. * A collection of documentation provided by :ref:`each project `. * Application Programming Interface Reference :ref:`available here `. * The `developer wiki `_ remains a good source of information on meeting plans and notes from committees, project teams and community events. .. index:: Licensing Security Notes ============== ONAP has adopted the `CII Best Practice Badge Program `_. The goal of the Beijing release is for all ONAP projects to be close to achieving a CII Passing badge. - `Badging Requirements `_ - `Badging Status for all ONAP projects `_ Project specific details are in the :ref:`release notes` for each project.
