Introducing Open Platform for NFV

Please direct any questions to info@opnfv.org

Key Industry Trends

Growth of data traversing the network Cloud computing changing the way applications are delivered

and consumed Service providers are under pressure to meet demands for

services from consumers, enterprises and the Internet of Things Industry shift towards Software-Defined Networking (SDN) and

Network Functions Virtualization (NFV)

Key Industry Needs

Increased service agility Improved Operational Efficiency Cloud-based delivery models Elasticity dynamic resource allocation Ability to leverage commodity hardware Integration of existing open source NFV building blocks Ecosystem collaboration, coordination and testing Carrier-grade service performance

11/30/15

OPNFV is a carrier-grade, integrated, open source platform to accelerate the introduction of new NFV products and services.

OPNFV Project Goals

Develop an integrated and tested open source platform that can be used to build NFV functionality, accelerating the introduction of new products and services

Include participation of leading end users to validate OPNFV meets the needs of user community

Contribute to and participate in relevant open source projects that will be leveraged in the OPNFV platform; ensure consistency, performance and interoperability among open source components

Establish an ecosystem for NFV solutions based on open standards and software Promote OPNFV as the preferred open reference platform

Participation in OPNFV is open to anyone, whether you are an employee of a member company or just passionate about network transformation.

Why Open Source? Higher reliability, more flexibility Faster, lower cost, and higher quality development Collaborative decisions about new features and roadmaps A common environment for uses and app developers Ability for users to focus resources on differentiating development Opportunity to drive open standards

Bottom Line: The open source model significantly accelerates consensus, delivering high performing, peer-reviewed code that forms a basis for an ecosystem of solutions.

Upstream Open Source

Work directly with upstream open source projects (OpenDaylight, OpenStack, KVM and Xen, and many others)

Work directly with standards bodies (ETSI and others) Leverage existing codebases Integrate existing open source components Identify gaps to create new code Provide a point of integration, testing and performance

OPNFV Arno Baseline foundation to enable continuous integration,

automated deployment deployment and testing of components necessary to build an NFV platform from upstream components such as OpenDaylight, OpenStack, Open vSwitch, Ceph & KVM.

Arno is aimed at anyone who is exploring NFV deployments, developing VNF applications, or interested in NFV performance and use case-based testing.

Provides an initial build of the NFV Infrastructure (NFVI) and Virtual Infrastructure Manager (VIM) components of ETSI NFV architecture.

Arno SR1: Designed to address known issues in the initial release for incremental stability and improved predictability.

Voices From The IndustryThe recent launch of the Open Platform for NFV initiative by the Linux Foundation presents enormous opportunities for OpenStack cloud operators. Discover what this could mean for your business. ZDNet

OPNFV is a unique organization that provides an ecosystem for users to work directly with the Open Source development community for an NFV platform AT&T

The fact that the Linux Foundation has been able to assemble such a broad and diverse base of support is a sign of how committed the channel is to transitioning from hardware- to software-based infrastructure while also keeping standards open. The VAR Guy

We expect OPNFV to lead the open source development of next generation core network elements and applications. China Mobile
