Released: Sunday, November 30, 2014

The first in our series of Extra Insights primers, NFV: Are you prepared? identifies the key technical, business, organizational and cultural changes necessary for service providers to successfully procure and deploy virtualized network components. Based on more detailed information guides from the Forum’s Zero-touch Orchestration, Operations and Management (ZOOM) team, this ebook will help service providers ask the right questions, preparing them to take full advantage of the capital and operational savings network virtualization offers.
