Network Function Virtualization (NFV)
Network Function Virtualization (NFV) is a transformative technology in telecommunications, enabling network operators to virtualize and decouple traditional network functions from dedicated hardware. Rather than relying on proprietary, specialized hardware, NFV allows these functions to run as software on commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware, providing greater flexibility, scalability, and efficiency. The primary goal of NFV is Continue reading
