| Summary |
Drawing upon the authors' practical experience, and using numerous examples and an easy-to-understand framework, this book provides an architectural, vendor-neutral level overview of the issues surrounding the large levels of data storage and transmission requirements needed for today's companies, also enumerating the benefits of NFV for the enterprise. -- Edited summary from book. |
