of CIRV about the Pod Descriptor File (PDF) definition, based on PDF history definition in OPNFV, we name it as PDF3.0. It's expected to build up a uniformed data model which cover all necessary information in the entire lifecycle stage in the NFV construction, like planning, configuration, pre/post checks, deployment, verification/validation etc. By using the common model, all participants of different stage roles could archive related function. It targets to reduce costs in kinds of adaptation during the final integration and deployment. 

Project description and goals

PDF2.0 had been implemented by CIRV-HDV and CIRV-SDV project which are mainly using the related data for validation functions. But actually, it also includes more about NFV planning, network configuration design&configuration, vim and storage integration data.  All of the requirements are defined and update in CNTT-RI specification. This project targets on implementation of PDF definition, currently based on SDV,HDV implementation requirements. We plan to generate two types of format, flat and hierarchy.
