[Chapter 3] Need and Information Model about anuket-specifications HOT 11 CLOSED

Would you have further details clarifying the issue?

from anuket-specifications.

@BernardTsai-DT this issue is from the Etherpad list -- a couple of folks felt that a model chapter needed an Information Model. In the RM, this could be restricted to the objects exposed to the identified Actors; viz., not get into an Information Model, say, for a VIM.

@pgoyal01: In the context of this issue I would intend to detail the missing architecture agnostic substructure of the software and physical resources layer.

from anuket-specifications.

@pgoyal01: How about structuring Chapter 3 in the following was:

Chapter 3: Overview of design principles and the layers
Section 3.1 Virtual Infrastructure Layer
Section 3.2. Software Layer
Section 3.3 Physical Infrastructure Layer

In these layers we would detail the elements of each layer in an abstract manner.

from anuket-specifications.

@BernardTsai-DT That works. Should the overview be titled, "Overview of the Design Principles and the NFVI Reference Model?"

from anuket-specifications.

@pgoyal01 That would be a suitable title but since it is in the introduction of the Chapter 3 I would simply write and explain this in the text.

Have created a new branch: Chapter-3---Information-model for this issue to capture proposals

from anuket-specifications.

@pgoyal01: How about adjusting the model overview diagram slightly to account for your thoughts regarding the software layer

The rearrangement maintains the 3 domains: virtual infrastructure, software and physical resources layer but clearly highlights the direct interaction with the software layer.

from anuket-specifications.

@pgoyal01 The different domains could be detailed in the following architecture blueprint neutral way:

3.1 Virtual Resources

3.2 Management Software

3.3 Physical Resources

@BernardTsai-DT These look great
