Abstrakt: Information is becoming increasingly ubiquitous in our society and the underlying network infrastructure must provide a flexible and efficient way to cope with ever growing demands. The challenge to provide telecom infrastructure with high quality of service levels, competitive cost and low environmental impact requires new technologies and approaches. SDN and NFV technologies emerge as a solution to these demands, shown new ways to implement dynamic and elastic network services. This paper introduces ElasticNFV, a SDN-based NFV orchestrator capable of performing load balancing in an application oblivious way. Performance analysis results confirm the potential of ElasticNFV to adequately address current telecom infrastructure needs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
