Virtualization
with OpenStack
This paper explores the implementation of Network Functions
Virtualization (NFV) using OpenStack, a cloud computing platform.
The research focuses on designing and implementing NFV
infrastructure, developing web-based management software, and
analyzing the performance of Virtual Network Functions (VNFs).

The Rise of NFV
1 Cloud Computing Impact
Cloud computing has revolutionized the computing landscape,
enabling virtualization and the delivery of services as
Infrastructure, Platform, and Software.

2 SPs and ASPs


Service Providers (SPs) faced challenges from Application Service
Providers (ASPs) who offered Over the Top (OTT) services, leading
to revenue decline for SPs.

3 NFV Initiative
To address these challenges, SPs initiated the Network Functions
Virtualization (NFV) initiative, aiming to transform network service
delivery.

Cloud Computing and NFV
Most research on NFV builds upon the concept of cloud computing,
leveraging virtualization to develop cloud-based services.

Open Source Ecosystem


Projects like OPNFV utilize open source platforms like OpenStack,
KVM, and Open vSwitch as NFV components.

OpenStack Tacker
OpenStack Tacker was released as part of the Mitaka version of
OpenStack, combining OpenStack components for NFV deployment
testing.

Software Development

Overview Monitoring
Displays information on available VNF Descriptors, active VNFs, and NFV
Infrastructure Status.

VNF Catalog
Allows administrators to onboard VNFs by inputting TOSCA YAML templates,
view VNF Descriptors, and delete them.

VNF Manager
Enables administrators to manage VNFs, including deploying VNFs using
templates and deleting active VNFs.
