Performance, Quality and Consultancy with Benchmarking
The purpose is to provide a common ground for evaluating the virtualized solutions for Data centers for choosing the appropriate platform and for virtualization, for choosing the appropriate Virtual Network Functions.
Test scenarios are:
- Classic scenario: PQR/server
- Adding elasticity
- Adding fault management/high availability
The following indicators are measured:
- Performance end-to-end capacity
- Quality: delay of procedures
- Reliability: P&Q modifications
A practical targeted benchmarking can be provided, based on:
- Expected number of devices
- Service provided to end-users
- Network topology
- KPIs of the specific network
Fraunhofer FOKUS
