NFV as an Active Research Topic
Active Research to study multiple aspects of virtualization• Characterizing performance of NFV [2]• Understanding bottlenecks in NFV [3] • Evaluation of architecture and infrastructures using NFV [4]

Importance
• Performance on virtualized cores vary for different workloads• Important to evaluate performance for
– Planning infrastructure deployment– Network roll-out– Business decisions
• There is no standardized framework for exchange of work-load descriptions between the various stakeholders to enable an effective performance evaluation

Impact
Enables• fair comparison of multiple
NFV platforms that comply with a similar scope
• network vendors to develop and compare solutions that satisfy trade-offs of features v/s performance v/s cost
• software vendors an integrators to develop solutions for different deployments
