OPNFV is a carrier-grade, integrated, open source platform for
NFV aiming at accelerating the introduction of NFV products and services. OPNFV focuses on building the NFV Infrastructure (NFVI) and the Virtualised Infrastructure
Management (VIM) by integrating components from various upstream projects as
well as working directly with those communities addressing novel requirements
and realizing new features.
OPNFV is supported by 55 member companies, including a
healthy mix of service providers and vendors, and more than 400 active
participants. After only eight months since its launch, OPNFV has published its
first software release OPNFV Arno which, as of November 2015, was already
downloaded more than 5,800 times. The community is now engaged on the next
milestone release OPNFV Brahmaputra that will be released in early 2016.
NTT DOCOMO is one of the founding members of
OPNFV and is supporting OPNFV as a platinum member. Our employee Malla Reddy
Sama recently has received an award for his contribution to the OPNFV Arno
release and, at the 2015 OPNFV Summit in San Francisco, Gerald Kunzmann was a
winner of the 2015 quarterly awards for his contribution to the OPNFV project.
