Hi gents,

I'm looking for physical network services orchestration framework for network service providers that could later be used/extended to orchestrate other areas of the business (virtualized services in DC, etc..). So far it appears to me that there's no such ready-made commercial product on the market that would contain all the building blocks I'd be interested in (well especially the easy to use service designer tool). ECOMP and now OANP seem to have it all and much more I'm just curious if anyone is using it in anger (or parts of it for that matter) for orchestration/design/automation of services on physical network. I'd like to hear some stories from trenches with regards to the implementation, but I'd be also interested in your thoughts in case you just assessed the tool for implementation (why did liked not liked about it).

Thank you

adam

Can you share a link to ecomp source code and install guide? I recall at&t press releases about millions of lines of open source code , but never saw the code

Thanks, CB

A few of us at my startup worked with onap for a few months last year as part of a container security project for a large telco. It was a bit of a PIA to get going. Att open sourced it in name - an enterprise sw project that was built by a large team over several years with lots of people coming and going. So I’d say don’t expect an easy go if it.

Onap was a popular topic at kubecon last year - lots of telcos medium and large looking at it, so due to popularity maybe the community support has improved in the last year.

Hi folks, So trying to resurrect this thread, All in all I received 4 responses, that in itself sort of suggests how popular the ONAP platform is among operators. Now I'd like to ask a slightly different question in light of the most helpful response above from John. And that is whether you know of any integrator that offers maintenance and development and help getting ONAP (or a fork of it) into production environments? Maybe one of those that contribute most to the code. I'm hoping for the similar ecosystem that grew around ODL where one can get exactly that. Call me romantic but I really fell for the model driven everything approach for running a telco. And unfortunately all the commercial products we reviewed thus far are basically just nice extensions of ansible (nice ways of pushing the config to network). But in real world I can't just stitch VRF+BGP+QOS config together and call it service1, push it into the network and hope for the best... In reality I'd need to functionality, scale and interworking test each of the building blocks and the whole solution to certify the service1 for production, only then I can push it on to the network, but then again I need to verify whether the service is ready for customers and I need to maintain throughout its lifecycle as well. Some of the products we reviewed provide only a basic framework with very little out of the box while others offer ready-made solution -but only to parts of the whole Design->Certify->Deploy->Verify->Monitor process. If you know of any commercial solution that addresses the whole network service lifecycle, then I'd be really thankful for any pointers. Thanks adam
