Industry is Enabling NFV

• Industry projects TMF, ONAP, MEF have concluded that the industry should use a generic interaction model to present both network and compute resources

• All the proposed models agree on the need for autonomous services with a standardized presentation

• This reduced instruction set is made possible through dynamic APIs where API payloads are abstracted and governed by meta-data
