-
-SO Sub-Components
-------------------
-
-**API Handler**
-
- RESTful interface to northbound clients
-
- * Handle service-level and infrastructure (VNF & network) requests
-
- Service-agnostic APIs
- * “Service Instantiation API”
-
- Model-driven recipe selection
- * Use SO Catalog to map input requests to BPMN flows
- * Dynamic lookup based on service-model + action
- * Input data forwarded to BPMN flow
-
- Track open and completed requests via SO Request DB
-
- Multiple API-H modules may support different APIs
-
-**BPMN Execution Engine**
-
- Open-source Camunda platform
- * Support BPMN 2.0 service recipes
-
- Expose RESTful interface to API-H (unique path per recipe)
-
- Make use of common “building block” sub-flows
-
- Sequence orchestration steps for each Resource in the recipe
- * Request and configure network resources via SDN-C
- * Manage cloud resources via PO (OpenStack)
- * Update inventory via A&AI
-
- Perform error handling/rollback
-
-**Resource Adapters**
-
- Interfaces to lower level controllers and other ONAP components
- * Platform Orchestrator, SDN-Controller, APP-Controller, VFC-Controllers
- * Hides the details of complex interfaces (e.g. OpenStack APIs)
- * Expose interfaces to BPMN flows as SOAP or REST APIs
- * Support synchronous and asynchronous operations
-
- Provided as part of SO platform for use by all BPMN flows
-
- Use SO Catalog to map resource requests to a recipe/template
-
- Data-driven design
- * Catalog templates may be updated via self-service (outside of release cycles)
- * Merge input parameters with templates at run-time
-
-**Data Stores**
-
- Request DB
- * Tracks open and completed requests
-
- SO Catalog
- * SO view of the SDC Catalog
- * service and resource models, recipes, and templates
- * Populated via SDC distribution service from TOSCA models
-
- Camunda DB
- * Maintain state for BPMN flows
- * Supports multiple active engines
-
-**SDC Distribution Client**
-
- Receive updated service models from SDC
- * Event-bus notifications when new models available
- * HTTP retrieval of models (TOSCA) and artifacts (Heat)
-
- Receive distributions as TOSCA models
-
- Populate SO Catalog
-
- Support self-service updates to models and artifacts
-
-Third Party and Open Source
----------------------------
-
-**BPMN Engine**
- Camunda (open source)
-
-**Other Open Source Components of Note:**
- JBOSS EAP/Wildfly
- MySQL/MariaDB
- Openstack Java SDK (“woorea”)
