Should Anuket TF hold off until SPC make a decision:
- Activities are parallel, we should continue
- How do we get the cloud providers to participate?
- targeting the right cloud providers and getting to the right business units
- Anuket is not being reference in RFPs
Verizon actively uses Anuket as a reference as are other telecos but it's not being advertised
- Why not?
- Is there a need
Can we get a user group to implement Anuket and make adjustments accordingly?
- This was one of the pulls for Matrix the original idea of being compliant with telcos
- You want to be able to show that it works and this will draw more participants
- what are the carrots for getting the participants -
- Is there an opportunity with TM Forum to showcase?
What do we want to achieve with the PoC?
- Prove the original concept that Anuket can deliver a common model, standardized reference infrastructure specs and conformance and performance framework for virtualized and cloud native network functions.
- Missing piece applications
- We have 2/3 of the solution participating in the TF (operator and cloud provider).
- Take feedback to SPC meetings to see if we can get the application piece and target a working group to work on the PoC.

Agenda
- Brainstorm discussion
- Identified actionable items Anuket can implement now
- More cross community collaboration - Identify communities to collaborate with:
- Nephio – Get the cloud vendors on board at the same time. Mostly an orchestrator and automation tool. Need to confirm that the two communities are in alignment. This is potentially the most fruitful approach. As the cloud providers are working hard on attracting the Telcos to use their cloud infrastructure, this might be a win -win strategy.
- Sylva – Already in alignment, but if Anuket goes into maintenance mode, there is a danger that Sylva might have trouble continuing as well.
- O-RAN? – Needs a definition of the underlying infrastructure and need to make sure that the projects are in alignment
- selective and focused collaboration
- Ask the vendors to participate on the implementation piece
- Find a project (developing markets)to assist
- Approach cloud vendors to contribute to projects by aligning with specs
- More cross community collaboration - Identify communities to collaborate with:
Overall, what do the different communities need from Anuket? Does Anuket need to change to be more attractive to these other communities? It does, but we don't have a good idea of what it is. Discussion of conformance, is it useful? We have launched several conformance projects that have not been adopted by the larger community. Quality specs and quality code is needed, but the backing of the Telcos is needed to drive adoption by the vendors. We lost the backing of one of the major Telcos due to changes in strategy.
