Project: Copper (Virtualized Infrastructure Deployment Policies)

Project "Copper" aims to help ensure that virtualized infrastructure deployments comply with goals of the VNF designer/user, e.g. re affinity and partitioning (e.g. per regulation, control/user plane separation, cost…). This is a "requirements" project with initial goal to assess “off the shelf” basic OPNFV platform support for policy management, using existing open source projects such as OpenStack Congress (current docs) and OpenDaylight Group-Based Policy (GBP). The project will assess what policy-related features are currently supported through research into the related projects in OpenStack and ODL, and testing of integrated vanilla distributions of those and other dependent open source projects in the OPNFV’s NFVI platform scope. The OPNFV Release 1 goal for Copper is that based upon the analysis and testing, prioritized gaps are identified and upstream open source projects are initiated to address those gaps.

The overall Release 1 project plan for Copper is:

  • February: In parallel
    • Based upon the Bootstrap/Get-started provided test platform, include the upstream policy functions in a Copper test platform build. A simpler config, e.g. with a single node or 3-node non-HA is likely needed to get started fast.
    • Identify upstream projects where requirements might be submitted to
    • Develop use cases for testing
    • develop test scripts/applications for the use cases, and run the tests
  • March: assess the test results, identify gaps to focus on in upstream project proposals, and develop the proposals
