2nd OSM Hackfest

Overview

ETSI's Centre for Testing and Interoperability and the OSM community are organising the 2nd OSM Hackfest on 20-23 March 2018. The event will be hosted by Intel in Madid, see details here after.

Participation to OSM Hackfests is free and open to all.

Scope

The 2nd OSM Hackfest will concentrate on VNF on-boarding activities covering Day 0/1/2 operations.

It will address complex descriptor development to leverage the full suite of capabilities offered by OSM Release THREE, from service and resource orchestration to VNF configuration with charm development.

Objectives

• Install OSM and run some examples
• Get familiar with OSM's GUI and CLI
• Create your own VNF and NS descriptors and build packages
• Understand how to deploy NS/VNF with EPA
• Learn how to add dynamic LCM with Day-1 and Day-2 actions with charms
• Basic troubleshooting

Who should attended

• VNF vendors, who want to onboard their VNF in OSM following best practices
• System Integrators, who want to get used with OSM
• Service providers, who want to get first hand operational experience with OSM
• Academia and Universities, who are considering OSM as platform for their research activities in networking
