Abstract

The network functions virtualization (NFV) paradigm promises higher flexibility, vendor-independence, and higher cost-efficiency for network operators. Its key concept consists of virtualizing the functions of specialized hardware-based middleboxes like load balancers or firewalls and running them on commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware.
