NFV
Overview of NFV
Network functions virtualization (NFV) replaces the traditional network by virtualizing network services rather than operating them on proprietary dedicated hardware.
That hardware is now just commodity hardware that runs software to accomplish functions such as routing, and firewalls. What used to require a physical replacement when technology advanced, now just needs to be patched or updated.
