A key component of this carrier-class reliability is selecting the correct Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) software platform. Wind River® has teamed up with Intel® and its virtualized network function (VNF) partners, ADVA, Brocade, Check Point, and Riverbed, to develop a reference design that combines the performance, reliability, scalability, and manageability required for this application.
