| ‘Services’ Overview | |
| =================== | |
| DCAE Services run on the DCAE platform. A service performs either | |
| monitors the virtualized network services or does analytics. A service | |
| is composed of one or more components, and performs a business need. | |
| Services are created in a ‘Service Design and Creation’ tool called | |
| ‘Service Assurance Flow Designer’ by a Service Designer. This is done by | |
| \* 1. ‘compose’ing a service from the available SDC catalog components | |
| (actually from the TOSCA models representing the components), then \* 2. | |
| ’submit’ing the service, which generates a Cloudify blueprint, is then | |
| automatically uploaded to INVENTORY, and then deployed by DEPLOYMENT | |
| HANDLER (once a DTI Event is triggered for the service). It should be | |
| noted that some service flows, specifally ’closed-loop’ flows, are not | |
| initiated by DTI, but are done by CLAMP. |
