OPNFV director Heather Kirksey and OPNFV TSC Chair, Chris Price discussed the approach the project took with the second release; what is new and different; the challenges of working upstream; and how the community is preparing the industry to move from NFV Proof of Concepts (PoCs) to NFV deployments.
5. OPNFV is a carrier-grade,
integrated, open source
platform to accelerate the
introduction of new NFV
products and services.
