SFCaaS: Service function chains as a service in NFV environments
ITU Journal on Future and Evolving Technologies, 2022 With the growing deployment of emergent technologies like software-defined networking, network services are expected to be revolutionized. In this paper, we investigate offering Service Function Chains as a Service (SFCaaS) in NFV environments. We describe the potential business model to offer such a service and then we address the service function ...

Prioritized Deployment of Dynamic Service Function Chains [PDF]
IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking, 2021 Service Function Chaining and Network Function Virtualization are enabling technologies that provide dynamic network services with diverse QoS requirements. Regarding the limited infrastructure resources, service providers need to prioritize service requests and even reject some of low-priority requests to satisfy the requirements of high-priority ...

Service Function Chaining Simplified
CoRR, 2016 Middleboxes have become a vital part of modern networks by providing service functions such as content filtering, load balancing and optimization of network traffic. An ordered sequence of middleboxes composing a logical service is called service chain. Service Function Chaining (SFC) enables us to define these service chains.
