Architecture
------------
The internal architecture of Slice Analysis MS is shown below.
.. image:: ./slice_analysis_ms_arch.jpg
The Slice Analysis MS has a DMaaP interface towards towards Policy and VES-Collector, and a REST
interface towards Config DB. It also has a DMaaP interface to receive any recommendations for
Closed Loop updates from an ML engine, which is then used to trigger a control loop message to
Policy.
- **DMAAP Client** creates a thread pool for every DMaaP topic consumer. The thread
polls the DMaaP topic for every configured time interval and whenever a message is
received it stores that message in the Postgres DB.
- **PM Thread** reads the PM event from the database and puts the PM sample in the
internal queue in the format which is needed for further processing.
- **Consumer Thread** consumes PM samples from the internal queue and make all the
required Config DB calls, perform the analysis, and puts the onset message to the DMaaP topic.
- **Database** is a PG DB.

Functional Description
----------------------
- Slice Analysis ms consumes PM messages from PERFORMANCE_MEASUREMENTS topic.
- For analysis Slice Analysis MS consumes various data from Config DB including List of Network
Functions which serves the S-NSSAI, List of Near-RT RICs and the corresponding cell mappings of the
S-NSSAI, Current Configuration of the Near-RT RICs, Slice Profile associated with the S-NSSAI and
Subscriber details of the S-NSSAI (for sending the onset message to policy).
- Based on the collected PM data, Slice Analysis MS computes the DLThptPerSlice and ULThptPerSlice
for the Near-RT RICs relevant for the S-NSSAI, and the computed value is compared with the current
configuration of the Near-RT RICs. If the change in configuration exceeds the minimum percentage
value which is kept as a configuration parameter, then the closed-loop will be triggered by posting
the onset message to DMaaP.
- Upon reception of recommendation to update the configuration of RAN from e.g., an ML MS, the Slice
Analysis MS prepares and sends a control loop onset message.
Deployment aspects
------------------
The SON-Handler MS will be deployed on DCAE as an on-demand component. Details of the installation
steps are available at ./installation.rst. Further details can be obtained from:
