Proposal template

...

Due to the flexibility of cloud platforms and the sensitivity of CNF-s the integration of CNF-s and their platforms is a continuous issue. The industry tries to address this with different conformance programs, but that only makes the CNF vendors life more difficult. This session attempts to explain the current situation and trigger a discussion to make this situation better.

  • Audience Engagement (In keeping with the spirit of bringing the “hallway track” into the program, please tell us how you intend to engage with the audience to foster interaction and collaboration.)

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

“Anuket specifications are a family of LFN initiatives to design, implement and test the conformance for Telco Cloud infrastructures. The aim of the specification work is to decrease the time and money needed to integrate Telco Cloud infrastructures and their workloads (Network Functions). Anuket specifications consist of a technology agnostic Reference Model (RM) and two technology-specific Reference Architectures and Reference Implementations, for OpenStack and Kubernetes, aligning with the Anuket Reference Model. In this talk Riccardo and Gergely will describe how RA2, the Kubernetes based Reference Architecture is enabling Telecommunications Providers and Vendors to deploy Containerised Network Functions (CNFs) on Kubernetes efficiently, and what’s new in Moselle, the current Anuket release, and what are the plans for the next one, Nile.”

  • Audience (Describe who the audience is and what you expect them to gain from your presentation.)

Architects in telecom network operators and in CNF and cloud platform vendors.

Working towards a shared model for Telecom Cloud Infrastructure, an overview of Anuket

...

Type of Submission

...

...

Anuket grew out of a marriage of a requirements task force (CNTT) and a infrastructure test project (OPNFV).   The idea is to create a  single project that not only defines the reference requirements for infrastructure, but also creates and supports the code needed to test and valid these infrastructures,  As you can imagine, it is an LFN project with a difficult mission. In this session, the co-chairs of the Anuket TSC will explain the structure of Anuket sub-projects, the activities in these different sub-projects and how all of this works towards the mission. The presentation will cover release highlights from the latest Moselle release and provide some insights to the targets for the ongoing Nile release.

  • Audience (Describe who the audience is and what you expect them to gain from your presentation.)

Anuket is a project that was designed to be a joint effort by and for Telecom vendors and operators.  This session will allow those who are Anuket curious to learn more about it a and those always wanted to ask what Anuket was but never had the chance.

  • Benefits to the Ecosystem (Tell us how the content of your presentation will help better the ecosystem. (We realize that this can be a difficult question to answer, but as with the abstract, the relevance of your presentation, and why people should attend the session, is just as important as the content).)

Actors in the telecom industry need better understanding of the mission of Anuket and how the project works to make this mission reality.  Anuket is a project that supports other projects in LFN and across the Open Standards community in general.

  • Audience Engagement (In keeping with the spirit of bringing the “hallway track” into the program, please tell us how you intend to engage with the audience to foster interaction and collaboration.)

This is intended as a fully interactive session with lots of opportunities for the audience to participate and ask questions.

Theory and use cases are important, but what happens when the rubber hits the road, or in other words, when your edge infrastructure is ready to be deployed and run in production.  During this PTG the edge sessions are organized around the dependencies and requirements for successfully launching and managing edge architectures in the field. Each session over the three days builds on the requirements and actions needed to take an edge infrastructure from development to deployment and into production. Starting from “Day 0”, the preparation/development phase before the deployment so to speak, and moving into “Day 1”, the actual deployment into the field, followed by “Day 2” or Day N (depending on who you talk to) which includes the management of the systems in production, each step calls for different components that interrelate with each other. The nomenclature for these three phases is borrowed from the  telecommunications industry, but they are applicable on a much wider scale and many more industries

    • Day-n concept and how it applies to Edge outside of telecommunications context
    • Day-0: "product development". Focus on bootstrapping, develop templates
    • Day-1: "service delivery". Instantiate/customize templates according to customer needs and deploy them. Validation.
    • Day-2: "production/operations"
  • Audience (Describe who the audience is and what you expect them to gain from your presentation.)
