Description

A successful digital transformation entails flexibility, efficiency, and self-service provisioning. In other words, a user-centric approach, which implies the usage of Orchestration, Automation and Virtualisation techniques (OAV).
The OAV team in GN4-3 created several resources to help the NRENs in their journey to this digital transformation through OAV (Training, Wiki, Terminology, Blueprint, Mapping of Architectures for NRENs..) The goal of this session is to gather ideas for future work, presenting the existing resources together with use cases from the NRENs. The BoF is an opportunity for NRENs to come together to agree on common actions.

        The Service Provider Architecture (SPA) is a service management platform that is based on the TMForum Open Digital Framework. The main SPA components are currently being used to support the production use of the GÉANT Connection Service - GCS developed and maintained by the GCS group in WP7. The SPA SSP is the main GUI used by the GEANT NOC to manage GCS, and the SPA components interface with the OpenNSA agents that implement the service in the GÉANT network.
