v5.0 (2019-09-06)
This release comes with many new additions to the existing 5GTANGO schemas:
- Support for multiple VM flavors (eg, bronze to gold) in a VNFD, defining different resource requirements or QoS requirements. This allows the service platform to dynamically select the best flavor according to current SLAs
- Support for new VNFD types:
- Support for cloud native deployment units within VNFDs: CNF (cloud native network functions) support
- Support for physical deployment units within VNFDs: PNF (physical network functions) support
- Support for mixed deployment units within one VNFD: HNF (hybrid network functions) support
- Allow specifying arbitrary QoS requirements for vLinks and connection points in VNFDs and NSDs
- Allow specifying alternative VDU images for deploying VNFs on multiple architectures (e.g., x86, ARM, etc.)
- Additional, optional fields requested by VNF vendors at the ETSI plug test: vm_flavor, security_groups, etc. for each VDU
- Updated slice schemas for multi-VIM deployments, for ingress and egress nodes
- Several fixes and smaller adjustments in all schemas
