1 Relationships of ONAP and OSS/BSS Jenny S. Huang Standards and Industry Alliances, AT&T Distinguished Fellow, ZOOM Project Co-chair, TM Forum 2017 TM Forum 1

2 OSS/BSS What for? schedule They are systems designed to manage and reduce the complexities of the risk resource businesses. Complexity risk schedule resource Complexity budget scope budget scope quality quality TM Forum 2

3 Topics Network and OSS/BSS transformation, happened independently! ONAP and OSS/BSS, rivals or match made in heaven? Way forward 2017 TM Forum 3

4 Quick Overview of OSS/BSS Evolution OSS/BSS 1.0 OSS/BSS 2.0 OSS/BSS 3.0 OSS/BSS 4.0 ~ Disruptor: computing technology Automation of FCAPS Purposely built, telecom specific technologies & Protocols Silo systems ~ Disruptor: Internet, SoA Leveraging IT technology, Model Driven System consolidation Separations of concerns via modeling/abstractions/apis 2010 Now Disruptor: Cloud, SDN, NFV Become business enabler Platform multi-side business models Embracing ecosystem System simplification Disruptor: Industrial 4.0 High Cohesion Architecture Big Data, AI/ML/DL Containers & Microservices Knowledge plane to support the businesses Fault Management Service Provisioning Capacity Planning Performance Management Inventory Management EMSes Common communication Vehicle/mediation layer Platform Capabilities Prem.

5 Scope of ONAP and TM Forum work TM Forum Scope Realization by TM Forum Member Companies ONAP Scope Customer Facing OSS/BSS Resource & Infrastructure Many companies have adopted TM Forum design principles, models and APIs for their OSS/BSS They also use TM Forum abstracted APIs for Hybrid infrastructure Mgmt. (Legacy, NFV, 5G ) To promote ONAP adoption, ease of integration with exiting & future operations systems is important. ONAP Refactors some traditional OSS & EMS functions to support virtualization and multi-vendor solutions. ONAP aims to support hybrid infrastructure, multi-cloud & multiple deployment flavors TM Forum 5
