Description
A templates of this type are atoms of application logic, and they Network Function Components must be hosted.
, as they are atomic applications. They are expected to have connection point bindings and are used to compose a Network Function, particularly a virtual one.
Nodes of this type are normally concrete, implemented using deployment artifacts.

Attributes
Nothing special
Capabilities
Types derived from onap.nodes.NetworkFunctionComponent normally extend it by at least one capability of type onap.capabilities.Bindable.
Requirements
| Name | Required | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| host | yes | tosca.capabilities.Container | A Network Function Component must be hosted. This requirement is normally paired with the host capability of a Compute-typed node. It can also be paired with the host capability of a Container-typed node. |
