2.1 OCNADD Feature Descriptions

Release 25.1.200

Oracle Communications Network Analytics Data Director (OCNADD) 25.1.200 has been updated with the following enhancements:

  • DD Metadata Enhancement: The metadata enrichment feature has been improved to support mapping rules and rule priority for Data Director metadata generation. Users can now configure the priority of metadata rules. The system will match rules, enrich metadata according to the matching rule, and evaluate rules based on the configured priority. Additionally, several new metadata attributes have been added to the enrichment feature, which can also be utilized for L3L4 mapping configuration. These new attributes are:
    • Previous-hop
    • Egress-authority

    For more information, see the Oracle Communications Network Analytics Data Director User Guide.

  • Zookeeper Deployment Replaced With Kraft Controller: Support for Zookeeper-based Kafka clusters has been discontinued. Going forward, Kafka clusters will be managed using the Kraft controller. This release includes migration support to facilitate the transition from Zookeeper to Kraft-based deployments for existing setups. For more information, see the Oracle Communications Network Analytics Data Director Install, Upgrade, and Fault Recovery Guide.
  • Performance Improvements: Performance benchmarks have been added to the benchmarking guide. The following performance figures were verified with the CNLB-enabled OCCNE cluster:
    • TCP feed: 360K MPS with a single feed
    • 360K MPS ingress with four feeds and the following egress rates:
      • 1 TCP feed with 360K MPS (no filtering)
      • 2 TCP feeds with 36K MPS (10% traffic allowed through filtering)
      • 1 HTTP2 feed with 16K MPS (5% traffic allowed through filtering)

    Note:

    The 360K MPS ingress is applicable only for SCP traffic, and maximum supported aggregated ingress traffic from multiple NFs is 270K MPS.
