Abstract: A network function virtualization (NFV) orchestration service includes a centralized orchestration device and a multi-cluster container management (MCCM) platform. The centralized orchestration device stores a catalog of virtual network function descriptors (VNFDs) in an input language; generates, based on the catalog of VNFDs, intents for containerized network function (CNF) services; and stores the generated intents as blocks in a central intent database, wherein the blocks include an input data model for the CNF services. The MCCM platform includes one or more processors to receive and store a copy of the intent database; read design time policies from the copy of the intent database; and convert the input data model into a vendor-specific output data model in an output language.

Abstract: A device may receive CNF data identifying a CNF to be deployed in a network. The device may perform multiple levels of validation associated with deploying the CNF. The device may determine, based on performing the multiple levels of validation, whether one or more issues are associated with deploying the CNF in the network. The one or more issues may include one or more of: a connectivity issue, a package issue, a network functions virtualization orchestrator (NFVO) issue, or a network functions virtualization infrastructure (NFVI) issue. The device may perform one or more actions based on determining whether the one or more issues are associated with the deploying the CNF in the network.

Abstract: Provided are systems and methods for automating the deployment of software-defined and/or virtualized network functions (“xNFs”) within a network via a holistic validation of each xNF against validation criteria and/or performance of prior xNFs. The holistic validation may include receiving an xNF, determining a first amount of risk associated with that xNF based on one or more differences between the xNF and the validation criteria, determining a second amount of risk by comparing performance characteristics of the xNF to performance characteristics of earlier version of the same or similar xNFs, providing the xNF to the network for deployment in response to the total risk being within an acceptable amount of risk, and preventing xNF deployment while providing a notification with a set of recommendations to reduce the xNF risk in response to the total risk exceeding the acceptable amount of risk.

Abstract: Network devices may be configured to execute computer-executable instructions to instantiate a deployable unit based on the instructions. The instructions may include a virtual network function (VNF) template that includes: a virtualized deployment unit (VDU) template that describes the deployable unit that includes containers; and a connection point template bound to the VDU template. The deployable unit may provide services of a network function in an access network or a core network. The deployable unit may include an interface defined by the connection point template.

Abstract: Systems and methods described herein provide a Specialized-Operator enabled with admission control functionalities and Custom Resource Definition (CRD) plugins responsible for improving the reliability of the CNF Lifecycle Management operations for deploying containerized workloads on any heterogeneous cloud platform or in multi-cluster environments. According to one implementation, a computing device includes a sensor Network Function Virtualization (NFV)-extension and an actuator NFV-extension. The sensor NFV-extension obtains, from a Container Infrastructure Service Manager (CISM), an event signal that indicates a deficiency with a customer Containerized Network Function (CNF) deployment; detects a current state for the CNF deployment; determines an intent for the CNF deployment; identifies, based on the intent, a desired state for the CNF deployment; and selects, from a group of available actuator NFV-extensions, the actuator NFV-extension corresponding to the desired state. The actuator NFV-extension may be configured to initiate remediation of the CNF deployment to the desired state.

Abstract: A device may receive CNF data identifying a CNF to be deployed in a network and a configuration of the CNF and may validate connectivity between resources to be utilized to deploy the CNF to generate connectivity data indicating whether one or more connectivity issues exist. The device may validate packages to be utilized to deploy the CNF to generate package data indicating whether one or more package issues exist and may validate an NFVO to be utilized to deploy the CNF to generate NFVO data indicating whether one or more NFVO issues exist. The device may validate an NFVI to be utilized to deploy the CNF to generate NFVI data indicating whether one or more NFVI issues exist and may determine whether one or more issues are associated with deploying the CNF based on the connectivity data, the package data, the NFVO data, and the NFVI data.

Abstract: A device may receive application information of an application to be deployed in a cloud computing environment. The application information may include requirement information including information defining a compute requirement of the application, a storage requirement of the application, and a network connectivity requirement of the application, and first capability information identifying requested capabilities of the first set of devices. The device may receive second capability information identifying actual capabilities of the second set of devices. The device may compare the first capability information and the second capability information to determine a measure of similarity between the first capability information and the second capability information. The device may generate deployment information for deploying the application on a device, of the second set of devices, based on the measure of similarity.
