VDU is a special resource that represents an infrastructure-level unit of execution environment, carrying the following functions:

  • ability to host a piece of application-level logic (VNFC)
  • specifies an image to launch from
  • concentrates the requirements for infrastructure resources: CPU, memory, IO, storage, networking
