Patent number: 11831501Abstract: Techniques are described for generating a virtualized network function (VNF) descriptor (VNFD) indicative of resources for managing VNF components (VNFCs) across a plurality of virtualized infrastructure managers (VIMs) implemented in a virtualized computing environment configured in a user-specific configuration. A VNFD generator receives a solution description file (SDF) encoding user input pertaining to the user-specific configuration, and a VNFC descriptor encoding VNFC specific information. The SDF and VNFC descriptor are validated and translated to generate an abstracted VNFD that is independent of renderers implemented at the virtualized computing environment. The abstracted VNFD is translated to a VNFD that is specific to the renderers and VIM and VNFD-specific information at the virtualized computing environment.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 2022Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Andrew Lee, James Duncan Parsons, Andrew Munro Caldwell, David Charles Hotham, Michael André Duppré, Philip Joel Davies, Joseph Ellis Darracott Powell
