Tacker - An OpenStack NFV Orchestration Framework
Tacker is an OpenStack-based NFV Orchestration framework designed to deploy and manage Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) while adhering to ETSI NFV Architectural Framework. It offers a full range of features to handle VNFs and orchestrate end-to-end Network Services across various Virtual Infrastructure Managers (VIMs). The platform includes various components such as monitoring applications within VNFs, Kubernetes integration, VNF lifecycle management, and future enhancements like SFC features, Mistral workflows, and support for different types of VNFs. Tacker aims to streamline the deployment and operation of VNFs within OpenStack environments.

Tacker Workflow: Register VIM
Tacker Workflow: Create VNFD
Tacker Workflow: Deploy VNF
Pre-requisite for Contribution Basic knowledge about ETSI standard Basic knowledge about TOSCA Knowledge about Different VNFs. Like Firewall, Load balancer, etc.
Blueprints & Bugs BPs: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/tacker Around 25 BPs are supposed to be implemented. Bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/tacker More than 100 open bugs. Testing: More functional/Unit Test cases Tempest Test More testing in Production environment ETSI Compliance: Needs to work in this direction
Cross-Project OPNFV-Doctor: Fault management & self healing Integration with OpenStack projects: Mistral, Congress, Blazor etc.. Management drivers for different VNF: Working with VNF apps
Use-Case Scenarios More use case scenarios will be helpful Work with industries for their real cases to test their VNFs on the Tacker.
How to contribute Same as other OpenStack projects. https://docs.openstack.org/tacker/latest/contributor/dev-process.html Reviews: https://review.openstack.org/#/q/project:openstack/tacker Contribute your ideas with blueprints: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/tacker Bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/tacker Discuss or help others on IRC #tacker Team meeting: Tuesday 08:00 UTC #openstack-meeting
