NetworkTransformation

Network Transformation

Network Functions Virtualization

Open Platform for NFV

What does OPNFV Actually do?

Resulting in lots of combinations...

CI on Distributed Baremetal Labs

Cross Community CI - XCI

XCI Pipelines

XCI and Life of a Developer

• Open Source Software Defined Networking Controller• First Linux Foundation networking project• Component of many OPNFV deployments

What is OpenDaylight?

Timeline

• 2013/8: ODL announced• 2014/9: OPNFV announced• 2014/9-12: Initial ideas (“Cross-project CI requires CD”)...

The Problem: Feeding OPNFV

• How should OPNFV installers deploy ODL?– Need fully automated solution– Need reusable solution for multiple installers– Need ODL to abstract configuration details away from OPNFV

• When OPNFV finds problems and ODL fixes them, how do we give OPNFV the new build to verify?– Needs to be hours, not months– Needs to be packaged/delivered exactly like official releases– Ideally managed by devs, not me

Continuous Delivery

• Continuous Delivery (CD*)– Continuously provide builds from development branches– Configuration tooling treated as code– Same pipeline for all releases (pre-release/official)

*Continuous Deployment: Actually deploy those^^ artifacts to production

Timeline

• 2013/8: ODL announced• 2014/9: OPNFV announced• 2014/9-12: Initial ~CD pipeline ideas...• 2015/1-6: Initial tooling (RPM, Puppet, Ansible, Packer)• 2015/6: Present ideas at ONS (slides)• 2015-now: Many iterations - features, tests, automation, docs

OpenDaylight’s CD Pipelines

• Packages– RPMs– Debs

• Configuration Management– Puppet– Ansible

• Pre-built images– Containers– VMs (libvirt/VBox)

How OPNFV Consumes ODL

• Packages– RPMs– Debs

• Configuration Management– Puppet– Ansible

• Pre-built images– Containers– VMs (libvirt/VBox)

What is OpenStack?

OpenStack software controls large pools of compute, storage, and networking resources throughout a datacenter, managed through a dashboard or via the OpenStack API. OpenStack works with popular enterprise and open source technologies making it ideal for heterogeneous infrastructure.

What is OpenStack?

LXB

OpenStack-Ansible and XCI

• Extremely Configurable• Builds from sources• Mature• Production ready• CI/CD in mind• Multi-OS• Offline installs

Where are we now?

The Future

❖ Reaching out to even more communities➢ OpenContrail, CNCF, DPDK and more

❖ Bringing in new use cases & technologies➢ Container orchestration, Cloud Native, Edge

❖ Tackling challenges together➢ OpenStack OpenLab, CNCF Cross Cloud CI
