NFVI Performance
Capacity: of RAM, CPU, storage
Stability:
- Chaos monkey tests?
- data throughput, CPU performance, RAM/Storage access performance?
- What is my reference implementation of NFVI? GSMA Profiles (B, N, and C). ETSI ISG NFV has a performance working group having specs. Led by Al Morton, AT&T. Also I think Pierre Lynch, IXIA, leads the testing spec group also.
- What are the metrics we need to measure? (align with ETSI, GSMA defined metrics).
- 1 test per metric?
- VNF Performance.
- huge dependency on NFVI. need reference NFVI to compare against. (GSMA Profiles).
- what are the metrics we need to measure? (align with ETSI, GSMA defined metrics).
- 1 test per metric?
- VNF Reference Implementation.
Security:
Open question: Where do these requirements come from? Who is responsible for the test cases?
