This course is for network engineers who require a practical understanding of Network Functions Virtualisation (NFV). 

The course reviews the current NFV situation, introduces the leading bodies defining the standards and discusses the likely fields of application by examining use cases and existing Proof of Concepts (POCs).

It discusses NFV from ETSI’s perspective, particularly in light of mobile operators’ intent to virtualise their IMS networks, as well as looking at how NFV relates to other techniques such as Cloud Computing and Software Defined Networking (SDN). 

Network Functions Virtualisation (NFV) is a crucial technology for network engineers looking to stay ahead in the rapidly evolving telecommunications industry. Our 2-day NFV Engineering Training Course is designed to provide a practical understanding of NFV, covering everything from the current NFV landscape to the standards set by leading bodies. Through a series of live online sessions, participants will explore real-world use cases, Proof of Concepts (POCs), and the relationship between NFV, Cloud Computing, and Software Defined Networking (SDN).

This course is ideal for network, software, and IT engineers, as well as managers and consultants who need to grasp the deployment considerations associated with NFV. Participants should have a basic understanding of IP networking and routing, with some familiarity with modern telecommunications networks. Topics covered include NFV Functional Architecture, NFV Infrastructure (NFVI), NFV Management and Orchestration (MANO), SDN and NFV integration, and ETSI Proof of Concept Projects. Don't miss this opportunity to enhance your skills and stay competitive in the dynamic world of NFV engineering.
