Focus for this presentation is the 'self-service' LCM API
- support for GRPC in CCSDK - this was due to p2p communication not many clients, and grpc is lightweight and well used in industry. WIll support DMaaP / messaging in the future
- Concern that implementing this as part of the PNF upgrade UC was misleading. Does the UC description need to be changed?
- Need to support plugin mechanism to support multiple PNF / VNF types through the common interface - this is already accounted for in CDS
- what is the best approach for onboarding - appc or CDS?
- CDS used for e2e CL and instantiation
- In Frankfurt it will also support all needed use cases
- Long term APPC will become deprecated
- Steps are moving towards generic network controller architecture
- Can we present this from an SO perspective at the SO session - next week
- How do we customise the SO behaviours? Certain steps are not needed for VNFs that are needed for PNFs for e.g.
- Take with SO meeting
- Good consensus on the direction, discussion is getting into the details

- There were questions about the compatability. It was clarified that this seems to be maintaining compatability
- There were questions about the PNF, the response was that there is some work required but it seems to be a solvalbe problem.
- On the slide with the branch to SLI engine (for directed grafph) and gRPC for (CDS blueprint processor). The response was that is not yet decided.
- There were questions about when the designer uses the directed graph vs CDS and based on what.
- There was a comment that a single YANG finle in CCSDK for the API definition was questioned as it was considered to be hard coding.
- At high level there was support for the direction, though further discussion is required to bring it forward to a recomendation.
Oskar/Yuri/Chaker to progress it.

- It was talking about the LCM APIs that the controllers provide
- It describes the different approaches that SDNC and APPC take today
- The current approach provides confusion as to what we should use
- The presentation asks can we move towards a common API definition that comes from the CCSDK
- There was a comment about the the relation to the TOSCA work in OASIS group.
- There were comments on the different approaches for CDS-based LCM (branching at SO; branching at the controller LCM API handling; and branching at the DG level). There were comments that option 3 is not preferred.
- It was commented that this seems to be in line with what people was thinking.
- It seems there is appreciation for having CDS API to be the target and defacto approach, retaining alternative 2 for compatibility.
- Cap and grow type of approach. Evolve with the CDS capabilities. Common LCM for all controller - the maintain option option A (2) for compatibility. Recommended for the Release E and projecting to ONAP we should get at the Arch F2F.
