Network function virtualization (NFV) is an initiative designed for the virtualization of network services that usually operates on proprietary dedicated hardware. These NFV functions such as load balancing, routing, and firewalls are bundled as a virtual machine on commodity hardware. As the NFV architecture virtualizes the network function at a server level, the NFV are expected to experience a thrust in their demand in the coming years. The NFV not only provide benefits to the enterprise, but the service providers also receive the potential to enhance scalability and improve the utilization of network resources. Further, the NFV’s ability to allow service providers to alter services in the form of virtual machine also contributes to its adoption. NFV also provides benefits regarding reduction is power consumption and can reduce both operational and capital expenditures. The rising adoption of NFV in Europe is generating significant growth opportunity for the network security firewall market players in the region.
