Abstract
The present invention relates to a container-based network function virtualization (NFV) platform, comprising at least one master node and at least one slave node, the master node is configured to, based on interference awareness, assign container-based network functions (NFs) in a master-slave-model-based, distributed computing system that has at least two slave nodes to each said slave node in a manner that relations among characteristics of the to-be-assigned NFs, info of load flows of the to-be-assigned NFs, communication overheads between the individual slave nodes, processing performance inside individual slave nodes, and load statuses inside individual said slave nodes are measured.
