These measures have + significantly bolstered the platform’s security. Additionally, by leveraging + industry-standard/de facto security protocol and mechanisms such as + Istio Service Mesh and Ingress Gateway, ONAP ensures secure inter- and + intra-component communications. +- **Platform Modernization**: Components such as the Common Controller Software + Development Kit (CCSDK), Configuration Persistence Service (CPS), + Usecase User Interface (UUI), Portal-NG and Policy Framework were upgraded + to Java 17. Additionally, various software versions updates ensure that ONAP + leverages the latest software development frameworks. +- **ONAP Streamlining Evolution**: This initiative makes ONAP components + modular and independent through interface abstraction, loose coupling and + CI/CD. As a result, ONAP has evolved into a collection of individual network + orchestration functions, allowing the industry to pick and choose specific + components and enabling flexible and dynamic function adoption. +- **Intent-based Declarative and GenAI Solutions**: Supports generative AI + solutions powered by large language models (LLMs), and includes data service + enhancements (domain-specific datasets) of Intent-driven networks and + Model-As-A-Service (MAAS). +- **Industry Standard-Based Network Interface Upgrade**: CCSDK/SDNC now + supports an RFC8040-compliant network interface. +- **OpenSSF Gold Standard Achievement**: The CPS and Policy Framework projects + have achieved the Open Source Security Foundation (OpenSSF) Gold Badging + standard, demonstrating ONAP’s commitment to high-quality, secure, and + reliable open-source software development. -ONAP is evolving. We took efforts in streamlining processes and roles and -NewDelhi release is the first one with agreed simplified software development -life cycle governance. - -OpenSSF Gold Standard ---------------------- - -We are proud to announce that first ONAP project achieved OpenSSF Gold -standard.

All ONAP MariaDB instances will -now be created with the latest version by default using the mariaDB-operator. -Added Galera clients (e.g. SO, SDNC) will use access to "primary" pod to avoid -"Deadlocks". Additionally added default role creation to ServiceAccount for -better access management. - -SDC ---- - -SDC implemented-services update capability directly in yaml was added, more -comprehensive support for defining behavior of interface operations and -adaptability to define CSAR structure and content to suit the requirements of -individual models. - -CCSDK ------ - -CCSDK continued maintaining alignment with OpenDaylight release schedule by -upgrading to OpenDaylight Argon version, Service Release 2.
