Overview

ETSI's Centre for Testing and Interoperability and the OSM community are organizing a new OSM Hackfest on 8-12 March 2021. The event will be run remotely, allowing participants to join the hands-on sessions from home.

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

Registration deadline is Thursday March 4th

Scope

The OSM-MR#10 Hackfest, the very first one featuring OSM Release NINE will offer a brand new challenge to participants:

Each of them (or each team) will become a telco operator and will have one week to build their network as a service offering for small businesses.
They will be provided a complete telco cloud environment with a Kubernetes Cluster and an OpenStack NVFI&VIM.
They will need to deploy several services to complete their offering for small businesses:
- A Firewall, to keep their data safe
- An LDAP server, to centralize their user management
- A Wiki Server, for their internal documentation
- A Virtual PC for each employee, as they won't have the budget for purchasing laptops
- A centralized Service Monitoring, to make sure they know if there are performance issues
- A Web Proxy, so you they can block certain sites, and optimize internet usage
In order for their company to succeed, they need to be able to create and manage all these services, and what better way to do that, than automating the whole with ETSI OSM: an end to end management and orchestration solution?

Through this challenge, participants will learn and exchange about:

How to operate OSM
Discovering and experimenting with latest features in OSM Release NINE
Modeling, packaging and on-boarding VNFs, PNFs, CNFs, Network Services, and Slices with ETSI NFV standardized descriptors.
Developing OSM Primitives for automating Day 1-2 operations
Troubleshooting, debugging and modifying code in OSM Modules
... and so much more!

In addition, participants will hear from key players in the OSM Ecosystem, who will share how OSM is helping them to achieve their goals and latest deployments during the OSM-MR#10 Ecosystem Day

Who should attend

VNF vendors, who want to onboard their VNF in OSM following best practices

OSM Ecosystem Day

Wednesday March 10th Afternoon (2:30pm - 6:00pm CET)

The OSM Ecosystem Day allows organizations in the OSM Ecosystem to share about how OSM is helping them to achieve their goals. Presentations and demos cover a wide range of aspects from research activities in academia to production deployments and commercial initiatives, many of them focused in 5G use cases.
