The document discusses SDN and NFV for carriers. It outlines challenges like network inflexibility and high costs, and opportunities like virtualization and software-defined networking. It provides an overview of NFV and SDN, including definitions and benefits. Use cases are presented that demonstrate how SDN and NFV can address challenges and enable new services. A phased approach is suggested for service providers to adopt NFV and SDN technologies.
The Next Step ofOpenStack Evolution for NFV DeploymentsDirk Kutscher
NFV is now a well-known concept and in an early deployment stage, leveraging and adapting OpenStack and other Open Source Software systems. In the OPNFV project, a large group of industry peers is building a carrier-grade, integrated, open source reference platform for the NFV community. The telco industry has successfully adopted Open Source Software for carrier-grade deployments. It is now time for taking the next steps and to extend the colloaboration with upstream projects -- by opening up previously proprietary developments, by contributing code and other artifacts in order to create a ecosystem of NFV platforms, applications, and management/orchestration systems.
This talk shares some insights on how Red Hat and NEC are working together to foster collaboration in the NFV ecosystem by actively working with OpenStack and other upstream projects.
NEC has pioneered the adoption of Linux, KVM, Open vSwitch, and OpenStack for their mobile network core product line (virtualized EPC) and has gained significant experience through development work and deployments. NEC's extensions for high efficiency and high availability have led to contributions of new features to OpenStack, such as DPDK vSwitch control and CPU allocation features. For NEC, it is very important to have those features integrated into the mainstream code base for building reliable infrastructure systems.
Red Hat, one of main contributors to OpenStack, leads the development of those functions to meet NFV requirements in OpenStack, making critical and demanding applications run of top of open platforms. The presentation explains how NEC and Red Hat are integrating and optimizing Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform and NFV, along with contributions to open source communities, including OpenStack and Open Platform for NFV (OPNFV).

ABSTRACT:
- How Telefónica is architecting its new Core Network with NFV to enable the dynamic re-allocation of capacity wherever needed.
- Why orchestration is the latest technical challenge to realize this vision, and what Telefónica is doing in this space.
- How Open Source MANO (OSM) has become the reference platform for interoperability after the launch of its third release.
- How this fits into Telefónica plans for virtualization.
NFV is "network function virtualization" and is a hot topic in virtualization and cloud infrastructure. This presentation walks through what NFV is and how the ManageIQ community could potentially integrate with various NFV implementations.
For more on ManageIQ, see http://manageiq.org/
If you missed my presentation at the SDN World Congress this week, here it is !
It explains how we analyzed the use of SDN based within an NFV environment. We picked the ITU model of Network resources, SDN controller and SDN applications and mapped those elements to the ETSI NFV architecture. Then we studied some design patterns, typical design of a network architecture with SDN and NFV, many different models. We also described SDN hierarchy and federation and collected lessons learnt from ETSI NFV POC using SDN and NFV. Finally we looked into few specific use cases such as Transport Network, or vCPE, but also policy. and last we looked into opensource SDN controller. We ended up with 35 recommendations that we are reviewing now in ETSI NFV to decide upon next steps. Comments welcome !
And if you want to see real life implementations, go and see HP NFV POC #34 and #38 in the POC Zone on site in Dusselfdorf this week Oct 8-16 2015 !

Enabling 5G with NFV: New Joint White Paper Outlining Network Operator Perspe...Open Networking Summit
In October 2012, a group of 13 global network operators published an influential white paper describing their vision for the future of telecommunications networks based on technology which they called “Network Functions Virtualisation” or simply “NFV”. Simultaneously they launched the ETSI NFV Industry Specification Group which is the central body converging requirements for NFV and developing specifications which enable standards and open source communities to use NFV in a common framework. This latest NFV white paper co-authored by 23 network operators - including members of the original founding group, outlines what they see as the priorities for NFV to support 5G. This session will overview this paper and describe the rationale for the main proposals.
This presentation is from Open Networking Summit 2017.
Pankur Agarwal and Muthurajan (M Jay) Jayakumar offered a hands-on lab for Network Service Benchmarking (NSB). NSB extends the yardstick framework to do VNF characterization and benchmarking in three different execution environments - bare metal i.e., native Linux environment, standalone virtual environment, and managed virtualized environment (e.g., OpenStack, etc.). This is part 1 - the introduction.
Dr. Christos Kolias – Senior Research Scientist
Keynote Title: “NFV: Empowering the Network”
Keynote Abstract: Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) envisions and promises to change the service provider landscape and has emerged as one of one of today’s significant trends. Although less than two years old, NFV has garnered the industry’s full attention and support. Moving swiftly, a number of key accomplishments have already taken place, and a lot more work is currently under way within ETSI NFV while we are embarking on its future phase. Various proofs-of-concepts (ranging from vEPC to vCPE, vIMS and vCDN) are being developed while issues such as open source and SDN are becoming key ingredients as the can play a pivotal role.
Dr. Christos Kolias' Bio: Christos Kolias is a senior research scientist at Orange Silicon Valley (a subsidiary of Orange). Christos is a co-founder of the ETSI NFV group and had led the formation of ONF’s Wireless & Mobile working group. He has lectured on NFV and SDN at several events. Christos has more than 15 years of experience in networking, he is the originator of Virtual Output Queueing (VOQ) used in packet switching. He holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science from UCLA.

SDN and NFV: Facts, Extensions, and Carrier Opportunitiesrjain51
Slides of a seminar talk by Prof. Raj Jain to AT&T SDN Forum, April 10, 2014.
It is well known that software defined networking and network function virtualization are key to the future of carriers. What may not be well known is the contentious debate among the industry leaders on approaches to these. In this talk, both sides of these arguments will be presented followed by an extension to the NFV idea that should be of interest to carriers.
The second part of the talk describes our current research in the area of service chaining of globally distributed VNFs. In this presentation we describe OpenADN (Open Application Delivery Network) which allows multiple providers to chain both application-level and network-level services via VNFs distributed globally on several private/public clouds. This is similar to the "Cloud of Clouds" idea currently developing in the industry. There is immense opportunity for carriers to play the key role in this space.

The complexity of these functions at Line Rate, have been traditionally handled by ASICs and NPUs. However with the availability of faster and cheaper CPUs and hardware/software accelerations, it is possible to move these functions onto commodity hardware. This tutorial will talk about the various building blocks available to speed up packet processing both hardware based e.g. SR-IOV, RDT, QAT, VMDq, VTD and software based e.g. DPDK, Fd.io/VPP, OVS etc and give hands on lab experience on DPDK and fd.io fast path look up with following sessions. 1: Introduction to Building blocks: Sujata Tibrewala
