Abstract:

   Exposure of network and service abstractions to external systems via
   YANG-based APIs has become an important means for operators to
   enhance their competitiveness.  Despite the availability of numerous
   YANG data models, operators continue to face significant challenges
   in operationalizing these APIs in a consistent, scalable, and
   interoperable manner.  Based on a typical use case, this document
   describes the problem space associated with operationalizing YANG-
   based service APIs, drawing on operator experience, IAB workshop
   findings to motivate requirements for improving API predictability
   and operational effectiveness through the upcoming ONSEN WG.  In
   addition, it intends to gather operational needs and motivations for
   network and service abstractions to inform YANG data model refresh
   work.
