13:07:36 <bh526r> #topic OVN4NFV Support of K8S by Srini and Trinath
13:08:29 <bh526r> #info Srini started with describing how ONAP supports K8S-based remote regions
13:11:31 <bh526r> #info and the scope of current K8S Plugin work in ONAP
13:13:26 <bh526r> #info Then OVN background was introduced
13:22:07 <bh526r> #info proposal is to develop a new plugin in OVN to support both networking workloads and normal application workloads
13:22:34 <bh526r> #info OPNFV OVN4NFV Project is the right place to develop this new plugin
13:23:14 <bh526r> #info create a PoC and make sure it works with ONAP
13:24:10 <bh526r> #info Then finally upstream it to OVN community either as a new plugin or as part of the existing plugin
13:24:59 <bh526r> #info David McBride asked who said it should not be part of OPNFV
13:25:33 <bh526r> #info Srini got the feeling when communicating with some projects, maybe the feeling is not correct
13:27:16 <bh526r> #info David further asked why not in OVN instead of OPNFV
13:29:33 <bh526r> #info Trinath said that OVN is more focused on enterprise now. This proposed new plugin K8SOVN4NFV is just for NFV workloads. OVN4NFV is a better place, because it is OPNFV is one of the best community for NFV, and OVN4NFV already works on addressing NFV needs using OVN
13:30:45 <bh526r> #info Srini further explained that it is a good approach to start with PoC in OPNFV, and the goal is to upstream to OVN eventually
13:31:05 <bh526r> #info Tapio also agreed that the goal is to upstream
13:31:56 <bh526r> #info Tapio further asked if OVN is more stable than OVS
13:32:22 <bh526r> #info Srini said what he heard is pretty well
13:32:44 <bh526r> #info David asked if there is timeline of upstreaming it
13:33:42 <bh526r> #info Srini shared that the plan is to start the upstreaming it in the middle of next year
13:34:08 <bh526r> #info There has been technical discussion with OVN community, but not the upstream plan
13:34:46 <bh526r> #info David suggested that it is better to communicate with them regarding the upstream plan
13:35:13 <bh526r> #info Srini agreed to communicate
13:35:57 <bh526r> #info David suggested to document this work in the project, and future release plan
