OPNFV, later CNTT and Anuket were formed with the idea in mind to decrease the integration costs of cloud applications and clouds. OPNFV intended to build integrated cloud stacks, at that time only based on OpenStack, which would become the de-facto cloud stacks of the telecom industry, so every VNF would know what to expect from it. OVP provided a verification program around it. The integrated OPNFV stack did not really become the de-facto cloud stack of telecom workloads and only a small number of NFVI or NFV vendors verified their solutions with OVP. Then CNTT was formed. The idea of CNTT was to specify the properties of the cloud stacks, this time both OpenStack and Kubernetes, and build a certification framework for clouds and their workloads. Then CNTT and OPNFV merged under the name of Anuket. OPNFV stacks became the Anuket reference implementations, the OPNFV test frameworks and tools used for the Anuket reference conformance program and OVP became Anuket Assured. During this time, CNCF started to build the CNF Testbed to test infrastructure capabilities needed for networking applications. The Testbed later was renamed to CNT Testsuite and application capability tests were also added. CNCF created the CNF WG to define the characteristics of CNF and the CNF Testsuite implemented a set of CNF tests. In its Moselle release, the Kubernetes based reference architecture in Anuket adopted most of the application tests from the CNF Testsuite as application requirements. In KubeCon EU 2022 CNCF announced their CNF Conformance Certification program based on the tests defined in the CNF Testsuite.

We plan to invite some key contributors form the CNCF CNF Conformance Certification program, Anuket Assured and Anuket RC2 programs and initiate a discussion in the last part of the presentation.
