7.3 NFV Based Solution
In [37], the author has tried to provide a solution specific to NFV. He performed
some experiments to provide the semantic ontology for automatic network service
generation and VNF management automation. To provide this semantic ontology
the authors have used NSD (Network Service Description), VNFD (Virtual Network
Function Description), VNFFG (VNF Forwarding graphs). To provide the NSD
management automation TOSCA (Topology and Orchestration Specification for
Cloud Applications) is used.
TOSCA consist of various kinds of Templates that are used to provide the semantic
between the NFV nodes. The names of those templates and types are as follows:
TOSCA service template, Topology template, Node template, Relationship template,
Node types, Relationship types, and plans. Various kinds of annotation mechanisms
are also discussed.
We have proposed NFV based IoT interoperability solution in the figure which is
applicable for various kinds of Data Centers, Edge Data Center, Smart IoT devices,
etc. the major role will be played by the ETSI MANO which will consist of NFV
Orchestrator, VNF Manager, VIM and support for OSS (Operations Support system)BSS (Business Support System) (Fig. 6).
In Protégé NSD solution was experimented and implemented for NFV, we can
extend the implementation of NFV for semantic IoT interoperability in future (Fig. 7).
