Abstract:
Network Function Virtualization (NFV) promises the delivery of
flexible chaining of Virtualized Network Functions (VNFs) with
portability, elasticity, guaranteed performance, reliability among
others. Service providers expect similar behavior from NFV as their
current appliances based infrastructure, however, with the ease and
flexibility of operation and cost effectiveness. Managing for
predictable performance in virtualized environments is far from
straightforward. Considering resource provisioning, selection of an
NFV Infrastructure Point of Presence to host a VNF or allocation of
resources (e.g., virtual CPUs, memory) needs to be done over
virtualized (abstracted and simplified) resource views. In order to
support orchestration decisions, we argue that a framework for VNF
benchmarking is need.
