摘要: Network service providers are facing challenges for deploying new services mainly due to the growing complexity of software architecture and development process. Moreover, recent architectural innovation network systems such as Function Virtualization (NFV), Software-defined Networking (SDN), Cloud computing increases operation yet again. One emerging solutions this problem is a novel concept, namely DevOps, that widely employed by major Internet companies. Although goals DevOps in data centers well-suited demands agile creation, additional requirements specific virtualized software-defined environment important be addressed from perspective modern carriers. In paper, we thoroughly debate developing creation platform taking EU FP7 project UNIFY reference suggest corresponding extensions interfaces meet discovered requirements.
