Extending Service Assurance Use Models to NFV

Network Function Virtualization is the way of the future, but NFV poses challenges in the area of service assurance. Communication service providers deliver services based on service level agreements. Downtime and failures can result in costly penalties and fines. These service providers must be able to provision applications, perform maintenance, manage operational cost and manage SLA for customers. They do this by measuring and tracking network performance with early detection and fault resolution capabilities. Learn how NFV changes performance, security and monitoring requirements compared to traditional, fixed devices.
