6th OSM Hackfest

Overview

ETSI's Centre for Testing and Interoperability and the OSM community are organizing the 6th OSM Hackfest on 13-17 May 2019.

The event will be hosted by INTEL in Santa Clara (CA, USA), co-located with the OSM#7 plenary meeting, offering a great opportunity to share and learn with OSM developers and module leaders, and explore further opportunities for synergies and collaboration.

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, such as 5G network slicing and end-to end service orchestration, 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 Release SIX and experimental features on the OSM Remote Labs network.

Objectives

OSM Hackfest participants will learn to

• Install OSM and run some examples
• Get familiar with OSM's GUI and CLI
• Create own VNF and NS descriptors and build packages
• Model and deploy NS/VNF with EPA capabilities
• Model dynamic Life Cycle Management operations with Day-1 and Day-2 actions
• Model 5G Network Slices and complex NS with PNFs
• 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 started with OSM
• Service providers, who want to get first hand operational experience with OSM
• Academia and Universities, who are using or considering OSM as platform for their research activities in networking
• Experimented developers and users that want to share and test with the community

Prerequisites

• Seats are limited, registration is mandatory
• Participants are expected to have user-level knowledge of Linux and be familiar with NFV and SDN concepts
• Laptop / VM in laptop
  • Linux installed (preferred, Ubuntu 16.04)
  • RECOMMENDED: 2 CPUs, 8 GB RAM, 20GB disk
• It is highly recommended that you download and install OSM Rel FIVE before the hackfest.
