OPNFV – Arno• Eight months after forming, the first release, Arno, is here!

• Baseline foundation to enable continuous integration, automated deployment deployment and testing of components necessary to build an NFV platform from upstream components such as OpenDaylight, OpenStack, Open vSwitch, Ceph & KVM.

• Arno is aimed at anyone who is exploring NFV deployments, developing VNF applications, or interested in NFV performance and use case-based testing.

• Provides an initial build of the NFV Infrastructure (NFVI) and Virtual Infrastructure Manager (VIM) components of ETSI NFV architecture.
