FUEL
This OPNFV initiative proposes to take the fuel@opnfv work that was done embedded into the Arno BGS project to an autonomous long lived OPNFV project with the aim to follow- and absorb OPNFV release train features into the Fuel@OPNFV installer and at the same time absorb new fuel capabilities, as well as put relevant OPNFV requirements on Fuel.

Edge Cloud
With the emergence of 5G and other technologies, new services with high throughput and low latency, such as AR/VR, automatic drive, etc., make edge cloud an important rising scenario for Telco Operators. The so called edge clouds may include customer premises equipment, access-level DC, county-level DC and municipal-level DC. Multiple new services and applications from both telco operators and 3rd party companies will be deployed at the edge to enable new services and enhance customer experience. Therefore, operators have to re-design or reconstruct their edge central office to deliver these diversified new services, and in the meantime reduce their CAPEX and OPEX. Edge clouds share a similar but simplified NFV+SDN architecture as the core DC but has more implementation constraints and complexity due to limited physical space and power, more distributed heterogeneous environments and stricter service requirements.

Bottlenecks
This project aims to find system bottlenecks by testing and verifying OPNFV infrastructure in a staging environment before committing it to a production environment. Instead of debugging a deployment in production environment, an automatic method for executing benchmarks which plans to validate the deployment during staging is adopted. This project will provide a framework to find the bottlenecks of OPNFV infrastructure. The framework has four components: Workload generator and VNFs (WV), Monitor and Analysis (MA), Deployment and Configuration (DC), Automated Staging (AS).
OPNFV Rocket
With the development of 5G and MEC, especially the emergence of AI, applications of high throughout, complex business and other new services which demand rapid compute capability, combined with the limited datacenter space conditions, it urgently requires the computing, network and storage acceleration abilities, like offloading compute capability from CPUs to certain hardware accelerators, and so on.
Open Platform for NFV Project, Inc.
OPNFV is a carrier-grade, integrated, open source platform to accelerate the introduction of new network functions virtualization (NFV) products and services. As an open source project, OPNFV is uniquely positioned to bring together the work of standards bodies, open source communities and commercial suppliers to deliver a de facto standard open source NFV platform for the industry. Participation is open to anyone, whether you are an employee of a member company or just passionate about network transformation.
Security Working Group
A group dedicated to improve OPNFV security through architecture, documentation, code review, vulnerability management.
Yardstick
The goal of the Yardstick Project is to verify the infrastructure compliance when running VNF applications. NFV Use Cases described in ETSI GS NFV 001 show a large variety of applications, each defining specific requirements and complex configuration on the underlying infrastructure and test tools.The Yardstick concept decomposes typical VNF work-load performance metrics into a number of characteristics/performance vectors, which each of them can be represented by distinct test-cases.
