glp-cs-vnf-benchmarking

Virtualization adds value by optimizing the use of resources via on demand capacity management, but it also increases risk, since resources are drawn from a shared environment. Consequently, VNFs must be benchmarked differently from dedicated devices.

This case study reviews the challenges and test solutions, covering:

  • An explanation of the NFV ecosystem
  • How VNFs should be benchmarked differently from dedicated devices
  • An introduction to the concept of “white box testing”
  • A concrete example, including takeaway insights
