“…In this context, SDN has been considered as a complementary technology to improve the flexibility and simplicity on delivering the network service (NS). This vision triggered a huge effort to evolve the NFV architecture from SDN-agnostic to fully SDN-enabled [35] [36]. The ultimate goal is to build up a system in which NFV technology focuses on the creation, configuration and management of VNFs used in the NS instances.…”

This paper analyzes current standardization situation of 5G and the role network softwarization plays in order to address the challenges the new generation of mobile networks must face. This paper surveys recent documentation from the main stakeholders to pick out the use cases, scenarios and emerging vertical sectors that will be enabled by 5G technologies, and to identify future high-level service requirements. Driven by those service requirements 5G systems will support diverse radio access technology scenarios, meet end-to-end user experienced requirements and provide capability of flexible network deployment and efficient operations. Then, based on the identified requirements, the paper overviews the main 5G technology trends and design principles to address them. In particular, the paper emphasizes the role played by three main technologies, namely SDN, NFV and MEC, and analyzes the main open issues of these technologies in relation to 5G.

“…In this context, virtualization mechanisms have proven to be useful from the cost and operational perspectives. Emerging virtualization paradigms like Containers [84] and NFV [85] allow the improvement of the performance and availability of service and device components. Once mapped as a logical item, physical objects can be handled like any other piece of software, granting the possibility to apply migration, instantiation, and other well-known techniques over them.…”

Recent developments in telecommunications have allowed drawing new paradigms, including the Internet of Everything, to provide services by the interconnection of different physical devices enabling the exchange of data to enrich and automate people's daily activities; and Fog computing, which is an extension of the well-known Cloud computing, bringing tasks to the edge of the network exploiting characteristics such as lower latency, mobility support, and location awareness. Combining these paradigms opens a new set of possibilities for innovative services and applications; however, it also brings a new complex scenario that must be efficiently managed to properly fulfill the needs of the users. In this scenario, the Fog Orchestrator component is the key to coordinate the services in the middle of Cloud computing and Internet of Everything. In this paper, key challenges in the development of the Fog Orchestrator to support the Internet of Everything are identified, including how they affect the tasks that a Fog service Orchestrator should perform. Furthermore, different service Orchestrator architectures for the Fog are explored and analyzed in order to identify how the previously listed challenges are being tackled. Finally, a discussion about the open challenges, technological directions, and future of the research on this subject is presented.

Abstract-Network function virtualization (NFV) has played important role in both industry and academic change in telecommunication services. NFV has the ability to handle reduction on OPEX and CAPEX; it provides new service and also increases quickly in getting a time value. NFV has an opportunity in doing research in developing new innovation in architecture, framework, and measures some of the technology used in deploying in NVF. In this paper, the author describes the relation between NFV, SDV and cloud computing. The architecture of NVF its advantage in using network function virtualization and some activity used in NFV and adoption of NVF and future direction of NFV, issues, and difference in NFV and SDV
