5G networks rely on effective end-to-end management and orchestration of services and resources for reaping the much-desired benefits. The Open Network Automation Platform (ONAP), proposed as a full-fledged, production-oriented framework for next-generation networks, supports the integration with business-oriented components typically found in the Telecom Operators architecture, making it a highly relevant one for R&D purposes. This paper proposes and implements a novel orchestration framework for deep vCDN services, Through phased vCDN deployment, i.e. with split Caching and Streaming components orchestration, the solution targets efficient and flexible resource usage in highly distributed 5G networks. The initial experiments and obtained results demonstrate the approach promises improved deployment and activation times of vCDN nodes, and control over resource usage in edge infrastructures, crucial for future 5G network deployments. |
