4. Dell EMC Approach to NFV Operationalization
WILL IT WORK?
Largely categorized as a testing viability and validating that moving physical workloads to a virtual environment is viable
Standards body & working groups created
HOW DOES IT SCALE?
Largely focused on classifying, categorizing, and optimizing VNFs across a range of parameters (compute, memory, storage).
Rise of DPDK, Intel as industry consultant
WHAT ARE THE ECONOMICS?
Specific focus on understanding economic viability and developing initial set of viable use-cases
