DCAE architecture comprises of DCAE Platform and DCAE Service components making DCAE flexible, elastic, and expansive enough for supporting the potentially infinite number of ways of constructing intelligent and automated control loops on distributed and heterogeneous infrastructure. - -DCAE Platform supports the functions to deploy, host and perform LCM applications of Service components. DCAE Platform components enable model driven deployment of service components and middleware infrastructures that service components depend upon, such as special storage and computation platforms. When triggered by an invocation call (such as CLAMP or via DCAE Dashboard), DCAE Platform follows the TOSCA model of the control loop that is specified by the triggering call, interacts with the underlying networking and computing infrastructure such as OpenSatck installations and Kubernetes clusters to deploy and configure the virtual apparatus (i.e. the collectors, the analytics, and auxiliary microservices) that are needed to form the control loop, at locations that requested. DCAE Platform also provisions DMaaP topics and manages the distribution scopes of the topics following the prescription of the control loop model by interacting with controlling function of DMaaP. - -DCAE Service components are the functional entities that realize the collection and analytics needs of ONAP control loops. They include the collectors for various data collection needs, event processors for data standardization, analytics that assess collected data, and various auxiliary microservices that assist data collection and analytics, and support other ONAP functions. Service components and DMaaP buses form the "data plane" for DCAE, where DCAE collected data is transported among different DCAE service components. - -DCAE service components configuration are stored under Key-Value store service, embodied by a Consul cluster. During deployment, DCAE platform (via Cloudify plugin) stores service component configuration under Consul for each deployment/instance (identified by ServiceComponentName). All DCAE components during startup will acess these configuration through ConfigBindingService api's to load deployment configuration and watch for any subsequent update. - -DCAE components use Consul's distributed K-V store service to distribute and manage component configurations where each key is based on the unique identity of a DCAE component, and the value is the configuration for the corresponding component. DCAE platform creates and updates the K-V pairs based on information provided as part of the control loop blueprint, or received from other ONAP components such as Policy Framework and CLAMP. Either through periodically polling or proactive pushing, the DCAE components get the configuration updates in realtime and apply the configuration updates. DCAE Platform also offers dynamic template resolution for configuration parameters that are dynamic and only known by the DCAE platform, such as dynamically provisioned DMaaP topics.
