Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) Services

Network Functions Virtualization

What is Network Functions Virtualization (NFV)?

Network Functions Virtualization or NFV is an evolved system engineering approach for building complex applications, particularly in the telecommunications and service provider industries, by effectively using virtualized resources. In the present scenarios, new applications are difficult to conceptualize. Thus, there is a greater focus on consolidating resources to optimize the cost. This is where NFC comes into play. NFV helps in re-engineering. Re-engineering mostly involves decoupling the logical network functions from the hardware platform and moving the software-only implementation of these functions to general-purpose high-performance servers using some virtualization framework. These software-only building blocks may be connected or chained together to create services.

Our Expertise

HSC has years of experience in working in NFV, both for product development as well as product testing, integration, and field deployment. We have actively worked with clients to migrate existing network functions to an NFV architecture and identify the optimal deployment configuration and infrastructure management approach. HSC is currently a development partner of Intel’s OpenNESS Edge platform.
