Abstract:
This document provides an overview of the issues associated with the
deployment of network services (such as firewalls, load balancers) in
large-scale environments. The term service chaining is used to
describe the deployment of such services, and the ability of a
network operator to specify an ordered list of services that should
be applied to a deterministic set of traffic flows. Such service
chains require integration of service policy alongside the deployment
of applications, while maintaining optimal use of available network
capacity and resources.
