OpenStack for NFV and SDN course description
OpenStack is predominately a cloud management
technology. This course looks at how OpenStack can
be used in a NFV and SDN environment.
What will you learn
Describe the architecture of NFV.
Explain the relationship between NFV and SDN.
Implement NFV VIM using OpenStack.
Explain how OpenStack as VNFM and
orchestrator works.
