Network virtualization may be used in application development and testing to mimic real-world hardware and system software. In application performance engineering, network virtualization enables emulation of connections between applications, services, dependencies, and end users for software testing.
In October 2012, a group of telecom operators published a white paper [4] at a conference in Darmstadt, Germany, on software-defined networking (SDN) and OpenFlow.The Call for Action concluding the White Paper led to the creation of the Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) Industry Specification Group (ISG) [5] within the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
In software engineering, containerization is operating-system–level virtualization or application-level virtualization over multiple network resources so that software applications can run in isolated user spaces called containers in any cloud or non-cloud environment, regardless of type or vendor. [1]
This allows for the virtualization of CPU, memory, disk and most importantly network IO. Upon such virtualization of hardware resources, the platform can accommodate multiple virtual network applications such as firewalls, routers, Web filters, and intrusion prevention systems, all functioning much like standalone hardware appliances, but ...
Network. Network virtualization: creation of a virtualized network addressing space within or across network subnets; Virtual private network (VPN): a network protocol that replaces the actual wire or other physical media in a network with an abstract layer, allowing a network to be created over the Internet
Virtual eXtensible LAN (VXLAN) is a network virtualization technology that uses a VLAN-like encapsulation technique to encapsulate OSI layer 2 Ethernet frames within layer 4 UDP datagrams, using 4789 as the default IANA-assigned destination UDP port number, [1] although many implementations that predate the IANA assignment use port 8472.
VIP (Virtual IP address): the IP address used by the director to provide services to client computers; RIP (Real IP address): the IP address used to connect to the cluster nodes; DIP (Directors IP address): the IP address used by the director to connect to network of real IP addresses
Unlike virtual memory, a system virtual machine entitled the user to write privileged instructions in their code. This approach had certain advantages, such as adding input/output devices not allowed by the standard system. [2] As technology evolves virtual memory for purposes of virtualization, new systems of memory overcommitment may be ...
