Noemi Wagner | f3d08c0 | 2018-11-30 10:22:09 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 9 | Open Network Automation Platform (ONAP) is an open source project hosted by |
| 10 | the Linux Foundation. |

Noemi Wagner | f3d08c0 | 2018-11-30 10:22:09 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 12 | ONAP provides a comprehensive platform for real-time, policy-driven service |
| 13 | orchestration and automation. ONAP enables service providers and developers |
| 14 | to rapidly automate the instantiation and configuration of physical and |
| 15 | virtual network functions and to support complete life cycle management |
| 16 | activities. By unifying the resources of open source members, ONAP enables |
| 17 | the acceleration of the development of a vibrant ecosystem around a globally |
| 18 | shared architecture and the implementation of network automation faster than |
| 19 | any product could on its own. |
| 20 | |
| 21 | The ONAP Platform architecture is built on the highly efficient cooperation of |
| 22 | Design-time Framework activities with the functions provided by the |
| 23 | Run-time Framework. The Design-time Framework defines resources, services |
| 24 | and products, creates and manages processes and policies, provides a single |
| 25 | platform for deploying and defining instantiation management besides many |
| 26 | other activities. The Run-time framework manages the full lifecycle of |
| 27 | networks, services, resources, topology, orchestrates delivery, provides |
| 28 | monitoring via analytics and controls activities for applications and |
| 29 | virtual functions. |
| 30 | |
| 31 | ONAP platform activities are supported by the Microservices support |
| 32 | system and by the ONAP Portal. |
