Hi all, Please find an updated draft version of the OCCI Core document attached.

Special thanks to Augusto for his work on clearing out the inconsistent use of the word "resource" in OCCI Core. regards, Ralf

On the radar: NFV
by shlomo.swidler＠gmail.com 05 Nov '12

05 Nov '12

Hi gang, Telco operators are rallying to encourage the IT and telco provider industries to jointly pursue Network Function Virtualization, NFV[1]. An envelope effort is being started at the ETSI, and SDOs with related scope (such as OCCI!) might be interested to get involved. I'm not directly involved myself, but I think this forum would be interested.
