The Open Platform for Network Functions Virtualization (OPNFV) project within the Linux Foundation is uniquely positioned to bring together the work of open source communities and standards bodies, and commercial suppliers to deliver a de facto NFV platform for the industry. Hear the overall vision for OPNFV, learn how the technical community functions, and get an understanding of the areas covered by 50+ active projects.
4. Open Platform for NFV (OPNFV) facilitates the
development and evolution of NFV
components across various open source
ecosystems.
Through system level integration, deployment
and testing, OPNFV creates a reference NFV
platform to accelerate the transformation of
enterprise and service provider networks.

11. Pharos Test Labs
• A federated NFV testing infrastructure of
community labs designed for hosting CI/CD and
testing of the OPNFV platform
• On a nightly basis, Pharos builds 30+ scenarios
and deploys them in an automated fashion on
multiple hardware platforms
• Pharos creates thousands of OpenStack
instances integrated with multiple NFV
components and performs automated testing
