The smallest possible configuration elements, combined using model-defined dependencies, can be re-used once the operator has defined mini workflows (Service Factories), and added any required dependencies.
OTT services and SDN/NFV-powered networking facilitate the dissemination of best practices, for example in video streaming, bringing significant savings.
Increased capacity and improved performance result from cloud-native solutions following VNF principles, reducing the limitations imposed by physical hardware.
Cheap and easily available commodity hardware and standardized software interfaces speed up deployments, which, with the automatic reshaping and capacity optimization possibilities of SDN, leads to improved performance.
