Introducing Open Platform for
NFV

2. Ø Container
Ø NFV
Top Openstack Usecase
What is NFV and why its Important for Telcos ?

3. Ø Innovation and Superior
Performance
Ø Speed and Agility
Ø Efficiency and
Effectiveness
Operator Change Driver

4. NFV challenges for Telcos
Building & managing
distributed, multi
vendor cloud
Migration to Cloud
data center without
impacting existing
services
Different workloads
demand different
resources from cloud
No real benchmark
matrices available
Multiple player and
multiple role make
complex to define SLA
and WLA
Cloud imposed
additional security
challenges
From SW and HW pre-integrated by each
vendor
To SW and HW from different vendors
and not integrated
Top priority for
telecom
operators is to
get ”internet
economy” speed
and cost benefit

5. NFV Reference Architecture

> Compose.
> Deploy. Test
> Iterate.
OPNFV is open source NFV

8. OPNFV Project Goals
• Develop and test an integrated open source platform
• Include participation of end users
• Contribute to and participate in relevant open source
projects
• Establish an ecosystem for NFV solutions

9. OPNFV is Up-Stream...
Create

10. ... and OPNFV is Down-Stream
Compose.Deploy.Test.

11. Up-stream + Down-stream: Mid-Stream
Compose.Deploy.Test.
Create

12. “Systems integration as an
open community effort.”

13. Assembling a Platform for NFV
Enhancements
Additions

14. Scenario:
“Deployment of a set of components
and their configuration”
Key Release Vehicle for OPNFV
OPNFV Composes Scenarios

15. Working Upstream with Open Source and
Standards

16. A scenario is a system.
Does it work?
> Deploy. Test.

17. Example testing activity in OPNFV:
System-Level testing: Project YardStick
1. Define infrastructure
2. Identify VNF-type
3. Select Test Cases
4. Execute Tests
5. Collect Results
6. Integrate VNF

18. Missing
Features/Components?
> Create

19. Building/evolving features means contributing upstream.
Team Up To Drive Required Change Upstream
Swimming upstream
is hard
Team-up to increase
the likelihood to succeed
Swimming upstream
is dangerous

20. Feature Development Example:
OPNFV Doctor Project – Fault Management
“Doctor” creates a fault management and maintenance framework

Project Blueprint Status
Ceilometer Event Alarm Evaluator
Completed
(Liberty)
Nova
New nova API call to mark
nova-compute down
Completed
(Liberty)
Support forcing service down
Completed
(Liberty)
Get valid server state
Completed
(Mitaka)
Add notification for service
status change
Completed

22. Components evolve.
Systems follow.
> Iterate.

23. Community Labs:
OPNFV Pharos Project
• Facilitate collaborative testing
• Provide developers with
substantial resources
• Ensure OPNFV applicability
across architectures,
environments and vendors
• Create more robust,
interoperable releases https://www.opnfv.org/developers/pharos
https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/pharos/Pharos+Home

24. OPNFV is MANY Scenarios,
including YOURS!
> There is no one single OPNFV,
there are multiple.
> OPNFV isn’t a reference
system.
