Installation of host OS
Configuration of network
Installation/setup of Kubernetes cluster
Installation/testing/validation for SEBA components (VOLTHA, NEM, ONOS)
Utilization of reusable components of the “Telco Appliance” blueprint family
Automated Continuous Deployment pipeline testing the full software stack (bottom to top, from firmware up to and including application)
Integration with Regional Controller (Akraino Feature Project) for “zero touch” deployment of SEBA to edge sites
Deployability to multiple hardware models

Objectives

Fully automated simultaneous deployment and testing on multiple hardware platforms
- Blueprint defines exact hardware configurations
- Each hardware variant is deployed into a Continuous Deployment system that runs the full test suite
Appliance model automates the installation, configuration and testing of:
- Firmware and/or BIOS/UEFI
- Base Operating System
- Components for management of containers, performance, fault, logging, networking, CPU
Application:
- SEBA is the application running on the Telco Appliance
- Fully automated testing includes running full application test suite
