ETSI MANO Common Object Models
The ETSI MANO object model framework supports simple onboarding, deployment, and management of virtual network functions. With extensive support for Enhanced Platform Awareness (EPA), the descriptors enable network function suppliers and network service providers to deploy virtual network functions quickly and easily, in the most cost-efficient manner.
Internally, RIFT.ware uses an abstract object model to express MANO funcationality in terms of capabilities, resources and relationships. The associated programming toolchain incorporating these models allows RIFT.ware to transparently import/export/translate/interwork various orchestration documents such as ETSI SOL001 TOSCA, ETSI OSM, and Openstack HEAT.
The following advanced functions are supported by ETSI Management Orchestration:
-
Maximize efficiency and performance by intelligently placing workloads on advanced NFV infrastructure capabilities, such as Enhanced Platform Awareness (EPA). See Enhanced Platform Awareness Workload Placement.
-
Interface physical network functions (PNFs) and chain them together logically to create service chains made entirely of VNFs, PNFs, or combinations of both.
