Strategy
Use POD10 for Network Intensive.
Measure stats related to the NFVi datapath capacity.
- Goal will be to demonstrate full automation of the environment (continuous deployment) with test cases with some useful test results (continuous testing).
- Status? Then look at adding compute and storage intensive VNFs and identify test cases that map back to CNTT specified capabilities.(Luc, Sridhar, Al, Trevor - creating more detailed plan?).
