This section provides a list of gaps in upstream projects for realizing
resource reservation and management. The gap analysis work focuses on the

NFV
Network Function Virtualization
and software components which build up the environment in which VNFs are
deployed.
- VNF
- Virtualized Network Function. Implementation of an Network Function that
- can be deployed on a Network Function Virtualization Infrastructure (NFVI).
-
- VIM
- Virtualized Infrastructure Manager; functional block that is responsible
- for controlling and managing the NFVI compute, storage and network
- resources, usually within one operator's Infrastructure Domain, e.g. NFVI
- Point of Presence (NFVI-PoP).
-
NFVO
Network Functions Virtualization Orchestrator; functional block that
manages the Network Service (NS) lifecycle and coordinates the management
(supported by the VIM) to ensure an optimized allocation of the necessary
resources and connectivity.
- VNFM
- Virtualized Network Function Manager; functional block that is responsible
- for the lifecycle management of VNF.
-
- Consumer
- User-side Manager; consumer of the interfaces produced by the VIM; VNFM,
- NFVO, or Orchestrator in ETSI NFV [7] terminology.
+ Physical resource
+ Actual resources in NFVI; not visible to Consumer.

Virtual Machine (VM)
Virtualized computation environment that behaves very much like a physical
computer/server.
- Virtual Storage
- Virtualized non-volatile storage allocated to a VM.
-
Virtual network
Virtual network routes information among the network interfaces of VM
instances and physical network interfaces, providing the necessary
connectivity.
- Physical resource
- Actual resources in NFVI; not visible to Consumer.
-
Virtual resource
A Virtual Machine (VM), a virtual network, or virtualized storage; Offered
resources to "Consumer" as result of infrastructure virtualization; visible
to Consumer.
