Copyright (C) 2021 Pantheon.tech +.. _overview: + +CPS Overview +============ + +The Configuration Persistence Service (CPS) is a platform component that is designed to serve as a +data repository for runtime data that needs persistence. + +Types of data that is stored: + +- **Configuration Parameters** + + These are configuration parameters that are used by xNFs during installation & commissioning. Configuration + parameters are typically used before the xNF has been brought up or is operational. For example, a 5G Network + configuration parameter for a PNFs that sets the mechanical tilt which is a configuration setting upon + installation. + +- **Operational Parameters** + + This operational information could be either an actual state or configuration of a network service or device. + These are parameters that are derived, discovered, computed that are used by xNFs during run time AFTER the + xNF becomes operational i.e. AFTER it has "booted up", been installed or configured. For example, in 5G Network, + 5G PNFs may need to adjust a tower electrical antenna tilt. These operational parameters are Exo-inventory + information, meaning it is information that doesn't belong in A&AI. In principle, some parameters might be both + configuration and operational parameters depending on how they are used. + +CPS Project +----------- + +Wiki: `Configuration Persistence Service Project <https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Configuration+Persistence+Service+Project>`_ + +Contact Information +------------------- + +onap-discuss@lists.onap.org |
