Here are the notes related to OpenStack Tacker project from Tokyo summit. Tacker Developer Meetup ----------------------- Rough notes are captured in the tacker design summit etherpad [1]. As discussed in the previous irc meeting [2] the team discussed possible new irc meeting slots for the upcoming cycle. We decided to go with Tuesday 1700 UTC slot. Tacker - tosca-parser / heat-translator Meetup ---------------------------------------------- Tacker developers had a meetup with tosca-parser / heat-translator core-team members. Bob from Tacker team will pitch-in to bring tosca-nfv profile support to tosca-parser library. He will also co-ordinate bringing tosca-parser based template parsing to Tacker. Birds of a Feather on NFV Orchestration using Tacker ----------------------------------------------------- We had quite a packed room full of attendees for this session. We provided an update on what we achieved in Liberty. More importantly, presented the planned roadmap for Mitaka and solicited inputs. There was a strong support for the key features listed - Multi-VIM, Service Function Chaining (SFC) and Platform aware VNF placement. There were many questions on the layer of separation between VNFM and NFVO. Some of the attendees requested the flexibility of Tacker used just as a VNFM or just as a NFVO. There was also a concern whether Tacker is taking up lots of things under its scope. The answer to this, the features added so far and the ones planned are in response to the requests from initial adopters of Tacker. Again, the plan is to leverage as many existing openstack projects (like Heat) and libraries (like tosca-parser) as possible. There was an ask to create few generic configuration-mgmt drivers like NETCONF/YANG for quick on-boarding of VNFs. The team will take these inputs into account in the upcoming blueprints and RFEs.
