Recipe for Cloud Native VNF● Software Defined
• Including the management and provisioning● Design for DevOps
• Configuration as code• Built-in automation of the provisioning and configuration• Continuous deployment
● Monitoring • Avoid proprietary monitoring • Use best of breed open-source monitoring framework
● Containers• Package your software in containers • Support multiple containers
The only constant is change
Other Considerations● Multi Tenancy
○ Share the same VNF between multiple users
○ Have separate VNF per (IaaS) tenant ● Multi Cloud (VIM) Support
○ Operators have different cloud flavour and preferences
○ Be ready to support the common platform to maximize your market reach

Cloudify Embeddable Orchestration
VNF providers should consider ARIA to gain TOSCA support, automation of deployment and configuration across multiple clouds such as OpenStack, VMware, (or any other cloud), as well as portability between different container-based architectures such as Docker Swarm or Kubernetes.
Cloudify includes ARIA as its orchestration engine, so by definition, it inherits all of its capabilities in addition to the capabilities that are provided by Cloudify Manager.
VNF providers should consider Cloudify in cases where they would want to gain more advanced management, ongoing automation and security such as:
- Self-healing - Auto-scaling - Monitoring- Policy Management- Security and Multi-Tenancy

Are You Ready to be Cloud Native?
Prerequisites
● Can you package your VNF as an Image/Container?
● Can your VNF be driven by API or external script? ● Can you boot/configure your VNF using Cloud-Init ● Does the setup of your VNF assume manual
intervention during the setup process?
