The event will be hosted by CTTC in Castelldefels (Barcelona), co-located with the OSM Mid-Release SIX meeting and a SonataNFV Hackfest, offering a great opportunity to share and learn with OSM developers and module leaders, and find further synergies with SonataNFV and other research activities.

Participation to OSM Hackfests is free and open to all upon registration

Scope

This OSM Hackfest will allow new users to get familiar with OSM Release FIVE and exercise all the main functionalities, from basic operations (installation, setup, common operations, etc.) to most advanced activities, with a big focus on VNF on-boarding activities covering Day 0/1/2 operations.

In addition, experienced users and developers will have the opportunity to hack into OSM, build complex examples, fine-tune, test and demonstrate experimental features on the OSM Remote Labs network.

• Model dynamic Life Cycle Management operations with Day-1 and Day-2 actions
• Perform basic troubleshooting
• Configure Fault and Performance management and close-loop operations
• Modify and experiment with OSM source code
• Build complex examples and run own experimental testing

Who should attend

• 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
