| High Volume VNF Event Streaming (HV-VES) Collector |
| ================================================== |
| |
| .. Add or remove sections below as appropriate for the platform component. |
| |
| |
| **HV-VES collector** has been proposed, based on a need to process high-volumes of data generated frequently by a large |
| number of NFs. The driving use-case is described and published within presentation during Casablanca Release Developer Forum: |
| `Google Protocol Buffers versus JSON - 5G RAN use-case - comparison`_. |

| |
| The goal of the collector is to support high volume data. It uses plain TCP connections. |
| Connections are stream-based (as opposed to request-based) and long running. |
| Payload is binary-encoded (currently using Google Protocol Buffers). |
| HV-VES uses direct connection to Kafka. |
| All these decisions were made in order to support high-volume data with minimal latency. |
