Abstract
The Network Function Virtualization paradigm is changing the telecommunications industry. Network applications in general purpose telco infrastructures will be instantiated on demand or deployed in the most appropriate location for each use case. Nevertheless, these virtualized scenarios are complex and require tools to manage the different components flexibly and reliably. ONAP is one of the projects that are implementing such tools. It provides a rich set of elements that can be executed in virtual machines or containers, following different architectures. In this paper we present the different possibilities for that and analyze their advantages and disadvantages.
