OPNFV Cloud Native Working Group Proposal

...

The Task Force proposes that we establish a working group to help drive these recommendations to project deliverables and have them implemented.

1) TG's scope

  • Scope of the new "OPNFV Cloud Native Working Group"
    • Serve as a forum to coordinate among all projects working on cloud native initiatives and drive for common goals and strategies
    • Serve as a common bridge with CNCF, ONAP/LFN, edge and other relevant communities. Represent OPNFV to work with these communities as a liaison and/or on joint initiatives.

    • Provide periodic updates to TSC

2) TG's proposed work items
  • Document current state of various ongoing efforts in OPNFV, where we want to go/contribute (OPNFV vision wrt cloud native), and identify gaps.Work items and objectives of the new "OPNFV Cloud Native Working Group"
    • Initial work item / starting point:
      • Create a "world map of cloud native in OPNFV" (short presentation) - document cloud-native related OPNFV projects and efforts, their current status as well as plans.
        Outline how these projects fit into the larger cloud-native ecosystem / articulate relationships to other projects (e.g. CNCF) / identify opportunities for future work. 
    • Establish a cloud native CD toolchain and process
    • Drive commonalities among OPNFV k8s scenarios. Produce common Kubernetes scenarios (e.g. two) with long-live community environment
    • Work with projects (initially select a few) to help them
      • produce cloud native artifacts
      • adopt cloud native tools and practices
      • adapt/expand to support cloud native environments
    • Ensure new projects include cloud native where appropriate
    • Establish robust connection and engagement with upstream CNCF, ONAP/LFN, edge and other communities
    • Support multi-clouds based on k8s: e.g. ONAP, edge, public clouds
    • Drive longer term efforts: e.g. common API, service mesh, ‘middle-box’ data path, acceleration, edge support, etc.

    • Produce user oriented and developer oriented training material


We propose to identify some low hanging fruits for initial goals, and at the same time start to formulate and drive some of the longer term objectives.

...

  • Creation of a WG with the defined scope and proposed work items

  • Current task force members to kick start the WG, WG is open to everyone interested in participating.
