[Starlingx-discuss] Use cases mapping to MVP architectures - FEEDBACK NEEDED
by Ildiko Vancsa 10 Jan '19

10 Jan '19

Hi, We are reaching out to you about the use cases for edge cloud infrastructure that the Edge Computing Group is working on to collect. They are recorded in our wiki [1] and they describe high level scenarios when an edge cloud infrastructure would be needed. During the second Denver PTG discussions we drafted two MVP architectures what we could build from the current functionality of OpenStack with some slight modifications [2]. These are based on the work of James and his team from Oath. We differentiate between a distributed [3] and a centralized [4] control plane architecture scenarios. In one of the Berlin Forum sessions we were asked to map the MVP architecture scenarios to the use cases so I made an initial mapping and now we are looking for feedback. This mapping only means, that the listed use case can be implemented using the MVP architecture scenarios. It should be noted, that none of the MVP architecture scenarios provide solution for edge cloud infrastructure upgrade or centralized management. Please comment on the wiki or in a reply to this mail in case you have questions or disagree with the initial mapping we put together. Please let us know if you have any questions. Here is the use cases and the mapped architecture scenarios: Mobile service provider 5G/4G virtual RAN deployment and Edge Cloud B2B2X [5] Both distributed [3] and centralized [4] Universal customer premise equipment (uCPE) for Enterprise Network Services[6] Both distributed [3] and centralized [4] Unmanned Aircraft Systems (Drones) [7] None - assuming that this Use Case requires a Small Edge instance which can work in case of a network partitioning event Cloud Storage Gateway - Storage at the Edge [8] None - assuming that this Use Case requires a Small Edge instance which can work in case of a network partitioning event Open Caching - stream/store data at the edge [9] Both distributed [3] and centralized [4] Smart City as Software-Defined closed-loop system [10] The use case is not complete enough to figure out Augmented Reality -- Sony Gaming Network [11] None - assuming that this Use Case requires a Small Edge instance which can work in case of a network partitioning event Analytics/control at the edge [12] The use case is not complete enough to figure out Manage retail chains - chick-fil-a [13] The use case is not complete enough to figure out At this moment chick-fil-a uses a different Kubernetes cluster in every edge location and they manage them using Git [14] Smart Home [15] None - assuming that this Use Case requires a Small Edge instance which can work in case of a network partitioning event Data Collection - Smart cooler/cold chain tracking [16] None - assuming that this Use Case requires a Small Edge instance which can work in case of a network partitioning event VPN Gateway Service Delivery [17] The use case is not complete enough to figure out [1]: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Edge_Computing_Group/Use_Cases [2]: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Edge_Computing_Group/Edge_Reference_Archite… [3]: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Edge_Computing_Group/Edge_Reference_Archite… [4]: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Edge_Computing_Group/Edge_Reference_Archite… [5]: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Edge_Computing_Group/Use_Cases#Mobile_servi….

[Starlingx-discuss] RFE Discussion for patch 9f926a5 for StartlingX upstreaming
by Xu, Chenjie 09 Jan '19

09 Jan '19

Hi Allain, Miguel posted two more questions on "[RFE] Add l2pop support for floating IP resources". I don't know how to answer the question "how to route external provider network whose type is VXLAN to outside"? https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1803494 Because external provider network is a mapping to the outside network, I tried to setup an VXLAN network environment (OVS is used as VTEP) and add a VXLAN port on br-ex to route the network traffic from OpenStack to VXLAN network environment. But it didn't work. Could you please give some advice on how to setup the environment? Best Regards, Xu, Chenjie

[Starlingx-discuss] [test][docs] Zoom conflicts during the Contributor Meetup
by Ildiko Vancsa 09 Jan '19

09 Jan '19

Hi StarlingX Community, The StarlingX Contributor Meetup[1] is approaching quickly and we are working on the last bits of logistics. We would like to provide the option to participate remotely for those of you who are not able to attend in person. An option is to use the Zoom account which we currently run the weekly project and team calls from which results in not being able to run the calls during the meetup hours on Tuesday and Wednesday next week. The affected calls are the Test and Documentation team calls. What would be the teams’ preference? Would you like to keep the weekly team call or cancel it in favor of the contributor meetup? Please respond to this thread and we will also discuss the topic on the project call this Wednesday. Please flag if I missed any other colliding calls. Thanks and Best Regards, Ildikó [1] https://www.eventbrite.com/e/starlingx-contributor-meetup-january-2019-tick…
