Abstract:
   Traditionally, NFV platforms were limited to using standard
   virtualization technologies (e.g., Xen, KVM, VMWare, Hyper-V, etc.)
   running guests based on general-purpose operating systems such as
   Windows, Linux or FreeBSD. More recently, a number of light-weight
   virtualization technologies including containers, unikernels
   (specialized VMs) and minimalistic distributions of general-purpose
   OSes have widened the spectrum of possibilities when constructing an
   NFV platform. This draft describes the challenges in building such a
   platform and discusses to what extent these technologies, as well as
   traditional VMs, are able to address them.
