This site has been moved to  https://cloudifynetwork.com/ The NFV Orchestrator or NFVO has two primary responsibilities Resource Orchestration: Resource Orchestration refers to the management of virtualised and non-virtualised resources in the Network Functions Virtualisation Infrastructure (NFVI). It will basically oversee the allocation of resources and monitor the allocated resources used by the services. Virtualised Resources include: Compute Resources Resources such as CPU and Memory which could be retrieved from a host or bare metal or from a Virtual machine. Storage Resources Network Resources Resources such as networks, ports, subnets, forwarding rules etc needed for intra and inter VNF communications. Non Virtualised Resources are restricted to providing connectivity between the Physical Network Functions ( PNF) and VNF and when a VNF is distributed between physical and virtual resources. Network Service Orchestr...

This site has been moved to  https://cloudifynetwork.com/ NFVI - Network Functions Virtualisation Infrastructure NFVI Consists of all resources required to gain virtualisation. NFVI can span across many locations, e.g. a part of the infrastructure could be in city A and another at city B to enable geo-redundancy. A location where NFVI node is deployed is called NFVI-PoP ( NFVI Point of Presence). NFVI-PoP may contain one or more NFVI nodes and network elements. VNFs can be in the same or different NFVI-PoPs. It includes Hardware Resources CPU, Memory ( RAM ), Storage, Routers, Switches, Cables and all kinds of hardwares. It will also include hardware to provide security, encryption and decryption, packet switching, accelerated packet forwarding etc. Virtualisation Layer Virtualisation Layer consists for hypervisors like esxi, kvm, xen etc . The hypervisor has complete  control over the physical hardware resources and abstract them for the Vi...
