TOSCA Implementation Landscape

[philippemerle]

The Known TOSCA Implementations wiki page contains a lot of useful links but readers need to go through all pages to have a big picture of TOSCA implementations.

I propose to add to the wiki a big picture named TOSCA Implementation Landscape, which could be the following one:

Green is for still alive implementations, Red is for retired/stopped implementations. Packages regroup implementations according to a common goal: High level modeling for producing CSARs, Storing CSARs, Orchestrating CSARS (and NFV artefacts), basic building blocks for TOSCA developers.

What do you think about this big picture?

Are you interested by this contribution?

This is terrific! Is this contribution coming with a program that can generate this image and thus make it easy to make changes to it, i.e. adding implementation, changing the groups, etc.

[philippemerle]

Currently I use the open source PlantUML software to generate this picture. So the contribution could be 1) the data file eaten by PlantUML and 2) the script to run PlantUML. Anyway the contribution could take the form we want to.

Following is a new version of the TOSCA Implementation Landscape big picture. I improved information reported for each implementation.

[tliron]

Very nice. I suggest a pull request that looks like this:

Under a new /wiki directory add:

• The resulting image
• A script to generate the image
• The source for PlantUML
• A README explaining what it is and how to use it

We will then edit the wiki and refer to the committed image file.

Great. I will do this asap.

@tliron I created a new project at https://github.com/philippemerle/tosca-implementation-landscape containing all the materials. I updated the wiki to links to the big picture and the github project.
