OAV Terminology

It became evident during a number of discussions with the NREN community that there were different usages and understanding of various terms in the context of orchestration, automation and virtualisation (OAV). As a result, a Focus Group (FG) on ‘Terminology’ was established

to identify a list of relevant OAV terms and acronyms and provide short definitions for these terms. It was agreed that the definitions should be based on documents of standardisation bodies whenever possible. In all other cases the FG provided definitions based on internal discussions and surveys within the WP6-T2 consensus building team. The work was concluded with a document (pdf) that can serve as a guideline to members of the community in the ongoing effort to find commonalities and strategic visions for further OAV-work in GÉANT. All terms can also be found at OAV Terminology.

Campus Network Management-as-a-Service (CNaaS)

As managing campus networks requires repeatedly updating and configuring many devices remotely, the use of orchestration, automation and virtualisation (OAV) techniques is key for the success of campus network management services.

In order to facilitate such service, a CNaaS Service Definition Template/Checklist was developed and is now available for interested NRENs (pdf)/(docx).

For more information see also Deliverable D6.4: Campus Network Management.

OAV Architectures

The main idea behind ODA is that of decoupling and integration of components which enables independent choice of solutions for each component, while at the same time maintaining a unified overall approach that supports the full end-to-end service lifecycle (including interoperability). The high-level ODA functional architecture maps the main components by their capabilities into the ODA function blocks. Read more....

Quantum Technology

WP6 Task 1 is currently reviewing network support requirements for Quantum Technology and quantum key distribution/exchange (QKD/QKE) technology in order to consider its applicability as a service for use by the GÉANT community. Quantum Technology page provides regular updates about this work and lists information about upcoming events.

NREN Survey (pdf)

During April 2019, an NREN survey (pdf) was conducted, which drew 31 responses. A summary of the results was presented at the GN4-3 Future Services Strategy Workshop on 9th May 2019 in Amsterdam; see the PDF of the survey summary.
