February 2015
This document provides information about the software requirements, installation, integration, and use of Oracle Communications Network Service Orchestration Solution.
The Network Service Orchestration solution enables you to create, implement, and manage the life cycles of your network services and their deployment as interconnected virtual network functions (VNFs) on virtual resources. The solution uses Oracle Communications Design Studio, Oracle Communications Unified Inventory Management (UIM) and Oracle Communications ASAP. The solution enables you to quickly create network services and virtual network functions by integrating with Oracle Communications Application Orchestrator, which manages the life cycles of VNFs. The solution is extensible and allows integration with third-party VNF managers.
The Network Service Orchestration solution provides the following functionality:
Definition of VNFs and Network Services. You can define and model VNFs and network services depending on the network functions that you want to virtualize on your network. In Network Functions Virtualization (NFV), defining and modeling VNFs and network services is referred to as onboarding VNF descriptors and network service descriptors. See "Defining VNFs and Network Services" for more information.
Instantiation of VNFs and Network Services. You can quickly create VNFs and network services so that they are active in your network. You can manage the life cycles of your VNFs and network services and control the resources that they use. See "Creating VNFs and Network Services" for more information.
Scaling of VNFs and Network Services. You can dynamically extend or reduce resources granted to your virtual network functions. See "Setting VNF Scaling Thresholds" for more information.
The Network Service Orchestration solution uses the defined elements and standards of the Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) reference framework.
Figure 1 illustrates the Network Service Orchestration solution architecture.
Figure 1 Network Service Orchestration Solution Architecture
To implement the Network Service Orchestration solution, you require the following software:
Oracle Communications Unified Inventory Management 7.2.5
Oracle Communications ASAP 7.2.0.4.1
Oracle Communications Application Orchestrator 1.0.2
Oracle Communications Design Studio 7.2.4
Oracle Communications ASAP Cartridge for Oracle Communications Application Orchestrator 1.0
The Network Service Orchestration solution uses the Oracle Communications Information Model to represent inventory items and business practices. The Oracle Communications Information Model is based on industry standards, such as the Shared Information/Data (SID) model developed by the TeleManagement Forum. The information model contains resource entities, service entities, common patterns, definitions, and common business entities.
For specific, technical details, about the Oracle Communications Information Model and the UIM information model, see Oracle Communications Information Model Reference and UIM Information Model Reference.
The Network Service Orchestration solution maps NFV concepts to UIM model elements. The solution defines a number of NFV descriptors in the form of Design Studio specifications. These specifications are used by UIM and ASAP to create NFV events for managing the life cycles of VNFs and services.
VNF descriptors describe the behavior of virtual functions that are mastered in the Network Service Orchestration cartridges. Network services are assembled from the defined units of behavior provided by the VNFs and Physical Network Functions (PNFs) in the cartridges. Network Service descriptors therefore structure how these network services are populated in the cartridges.
Table 1 describes the NFV entities and their corresponding UIM entities.

To define and model VNFs and network services for your network, you work in Design Studio. In Design Studio, you define specifications and properties for your VNFs, network services, and their hierarchical and related components. The specifications form the VNF Descriptors and Network Service Descriptors that are used throughout the Network Service Orchestration Solution.
After you define specifications for your VNFs and network services, you package them into cartridges and deploy them into UIM and ASAP. You use the specifications to create instances of VNFs and network services for your network.
The Network Service Orchestration solution provides cartridges that contain sample specifications that you can use to create VNFs, network services, and other resources for your network. For more information about Network Service Orchestration Solution cartridges, see "Contents of the Network Service Orchestration JAR and ZIP Files" and "Deploying the Network Service Orchestration Cartridges".
Before you a create a VNF in UIM, you must have defined and modeled a corresponding VNF specification and other related specifications in Design Studio. See "Defining VNFs and Network Services".
To create an instance of a VNF, you work in UIM. In UIM, you create entities based on the specifications that were defined and modeled in Design Studio.
The Network Service Orchestration cartridges contain sample specifications that you can use to create VNFs, services, and other resources for your network.
Before you create a VNF, ensure that you have configured VDUs and NF Groups in manual scaling mode in Application Orchestrator. See Application Orchestrator 1.0 User Guide.
To create a VNF:
In UIM, create a business interaction based on the NFV Service Request specification. See UIM Online Help for information about creating entities in UIM.
Create a logical device based on a VNF specification to represent the VNF.
For example, in an IMS Core network, a logical device in UIM can represent a Core Session Manager (CSM).
Under the VNF logical device entity, create a device interface based on an NF Group specification.
Under the NF Group device interface, create a device sub-interface based on a VDU specification. While creating the device sub-interface, specify a valid IP address for the device sub-interface that represents a virtual machine (VM).
Create a service based on the VNF Descriptor service specification and associate the VNF logical device that you created in step 2 with the service.
Under the service, create a service configuration based on the appropriate Service Configuration specification.
Associate the NFV Service Request business interaction that you created in step 1 with the Service configuration.
For the Service configuration, update each configuration item as appropriate:
Reference the NF Group device interface that you created in step 4.
Assign the VDU device interface.
Approve and issue the NFV Service Request business interaction.
UIM sends the request to ASAP, which deploys the VNF on the virtual machines in the network.
After the successful deployment of a VNF in the network, UIM receives a response from ASAP and completes the NFV service request automatically.
A network service comprises multiple interconnected VNFs. To create a network service comprising multiple VNFs:
In UIM, create a business interaction based on the NFV Service Request specification.
Create a service based on the Network Service specification and create a corresponding service configuration to represent the overall network service.
Associate the NFV Service Request business interaction that you created in step 1 with the Service configuration for the network service.
Associate the VNF services that you created earlier to the Network Service configuration.
Approve and issue the NFV Service Request business interaction to create the network service and its constituent VNFs.
The solution provides scaling capabilities that enable you to scale up or scale down your network services and VNFs.
To automatically scale up or scale down a VNF, you configure Key Performance Indicator (KPI) thresholds. Application Orchestrator scales up or scales down a VNF based on the threshold parameters. Before you configure KPI thresholds in UIM, you must set the scaling mode to Auto at the NF Group level in Application Orchestrator.
To configure KPI thresholds:
In UIM, create a business interaction based on the NFV Service Request specification. See UIM Online Help for information about creating entities in UIM.
Create an NF Group service for the NF Group for which you want to configure KPI thresholds.
Configure KPI thresholds for the NF Group service. For example, configure the following KPI thresholds:
Calls Per Second
Active Sessions
Active Local Contacts
CPU Utilization
Memory Utilization
Approve and issue the NFV Service Request business interaction.
For more information about KPI thresholds, see Application Orchestrator 1.0 User Guide.
You can also manually add, remove, and replace resources in a network service by creating and deleting VNFs using new NFV Service Request business interactions.
You can terminate a VNF that is no longer needed on the network. When you terminate a VNF, the VNF is removed and its resources are released from the network.
To terminate a VNF:
In UIM, create a business interaction based on the NFV Service Request specification.
Specify the VNF service that you want to terminate and disconnect the VNF service.
UIM creates a service configuration automatically.
Associate the NFV Service Request business interaction with the service configuration.
Approve and issue the NFV Service Request business interaction.
UIM sends the request to ASAP, which terminates the VNF and undeploys the VMs on the network.
After ASAP undeploys the VM in the network, UIM completes the NFV Service Request business interaction automatically.
The Network Service Orchestration RESTful API provides the northbound interface to the Network Service Orchestration solution. Operation Support Systems (OSS) and VNF managers can query data from the solution's resource inventory.
The root URL for the Network Service Orchestration RESTful API is:
HTTP Connection: http://uim_host:port/ocnso/1.0/vnfs
SSL Connection: https://uim_host:port/ocnso/1.0/vnfs
where uim_host is the host on which UIM is installed and port is the port number.
You can use the VNF API to retrieve information about VNFs that are configured on your network.
Table 2 describes the VNF API resources.
| Resource | Method | Description |
|---|---|---|
