Scalable Architecture for Service Function Chain Orchestration [PDF]
2015 Fourth European Workshop on Software Defined Networks, 2015 Network Function Virtualization (NFV) enables to implement network functions in software, high-speed packet processing functions which traditionally are dominated by hardware implementations. Virtualized Network Functions (NFs) may be deployed on generic-purpose servers, e.g., in datacenters.

Service Function Chaining Simplified
, 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.
