Contains all the information needed for installation. - - -Consul ------- -Opensource Platform Component that supports Service Discovery, -Configuration, and Healthcheck. Refer to -`Architecture </architecture/pieces>`__ for more information. - -Component ---------- -Refers to a DCAE service component which is a single micro-service that -is written to be run by the DCAE platform and to be composeable to form -a DCAE service. That composition occurs in the SDC. - - -Config Binding Service ----------------------- -DCAE Platform Component - Service Components use Config Binding Service -to access Consul and retrieve configuration variables. - - -Component Specification ------------------------ -JSON formatted file that fully describes a component and its interfaces - - -Data Format / Data Format Specification ---------------------------------------- -JSON formatted file that fully describes a components input or output - - -Deployment Handler ------------------- -DCAE Platform Component - Receives Input from DTI Handler, and talks to -Cloudify to deploy components. - - -Design-Time ------------ -Refers to when the System Designer uses a design tool to compose services -from components in the catalog. The Designer can provide input to -assign/override defaults for configuration for any parameter with the -property 'designer\_editable' set to 'true'. - - -Deploy-Time ------------ -Refers to when a service is being deployed. This can be done -automatically via the SDC Tool, or manually via the DCAE Dashboard or -CLAMP UI. When manually deployed, DevOps can provide input to -assign/override defaults for configuration for any parameter with the -property 'sourced\_at\_deployment' set to 'true'. - - -Docker ------- -Opensource Platform for development of containerized applications in the -cloud. Many DCAE service components and all DCAE collectors are written -utilizing Docker. - - -Dmaap ------ -AT&T data transportation service platform that supports message-based -topics and file-based feeds. Runs locally at the Edge and Centrally. - - -Inventory ---------- -DCAE Platform Component - Postgres DB containing Cloudify Blueprints for -platform and service components. - - -Policy ------- -Refers to the setting of configuration parameters for a component, by -Operations via the Policy UI. - - -Policy Handler --------------- -DCAE Platform Component that received Policy updates from Policy UI - - -Policy UI ---------- -Non DCAE Component - Policy User Interace where Operations assigns -values to configuraton specified for this. - - -Run-Time --------- -Refers to the when a service is running on the platform. Often used in -conjunction with DTI events which occur at Run-time. - - -SCH - Service Change Handler ----------------------------- -DCAE Platform Component - Receives updates from SDC and updates -Inventory - - -SDC - Service Design and Creation ---------------------------------- -ONAP design catalog for onboarding VNF/PNF packages - - -Self-Service ------------- -Refers to services that are supported by SDC, and that are automatically -installed as a result of a Service Designer's composition and submission -of a service. Only a handful of services are 'self-service' currently. -Most require manual effort to generate the Tosca Model files and -Cloudify Blueprints. - - -Service Component ------------------ -Microservice that provides network monitoring or analytic function on -the DCAE platform. - - -Service -------- -Generally composed of multiple service components, which is deployed to -the DCAE platform. - - -VNF - Virtualized Network Function ----------------------------------- -A network function that runs on one or more virtualized machines. |
