NFV/SDN One of the trends we expect to see in the year ahead and what you can look forward to as the telecom industry continues to evolve. Network functions virtualization is another area in which will see increased investment during 2014. NFV technology supports the virtualization of components allowing a flexible network infrastructure that underpins the shift of applications and services to the cloud. NFV will bring agility and efficiency to networks and business operations and will allow operators to efficiently and cost-effectively support dynamic subscriber demands. We expect the industry transition to NFV to accelerate in 2014 starting in the core network control plane and end-user services. In 2014, more and more tools and professional services will be available to assist operators with the migration to NFV, making life easier for all. In time, both fixed and wireless access network elements will become virtualized, including functionality that previously resided at the customer premises (residential and enterprise). SDN techniques will play a key role here for service roll-out flexibility, and proof points will already appear in the coming year.
