DUBLIN --(Business Wire)--

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/z468xq/advanced_research) has announced the addition of the "Advanced Research Report Network Functions Virtualization (NFV)" report to their offering.

The Network Functions Virtualization report provides a thorough, qualitative assessment of the NFV market over the next five years as it relates to telecom Service Providers and equipment vendors. The report includes a revenue forecast for NFV in selected technology segments and discusses the technology, business, and financial implications of this burgeoning technology.

The report discusses how we see NFV impacting system manufacturers now and in te future, and how it ultimately trickles down the supply chain. It also addresses what some of the telecom operators are planning and where they are with those plans.
