What I meant that as we've been deploying NFV as a VM,
cloud-native means we take that VM and containerize it further. Umm, I don't think so. At least that's not the impression I got from the CNCF, Intel and Red Hat. They seem to be striving for K8s without the use of VM hypervisors. Etienne On Wed, Aug 5, 2020 at 2:12 PM Mark Tinka <mark.tinka () seacom com> wrote:

It's a further diffusion of NFV, in my book. The benefits about the added de-layering (if one can call it that) are left as an exercise to the operator. Also with regards to NFV markets, it’s just CPE or telco-cloud (routing on host, FWs, LBs and other domain specific network devices like SBCs), and then RRs, no one sane would be replacing high throughput aggregation points like PEs or core nodes with NFV ,unless one wants to get into some serious horizontal scaling ;). Well, vCPE's and vBNG's have long been the holy grail for some of us, especially since it makes IPv6 roll-out significantly simpler. Mark.
