HEAT
Each VFC have its own HEAT template and environment file. On of the HEAT template is the 'base_template'. It contains the resources shared accross others VFC; for instance, its responsible for creating the 'protected' and 'unprotected' networks.
In the HEAT template, the following fields were added to the server's metadata: sdnc_model_name, sdnc_model_version, sdnc_artifact_name. They identify a Controller Blueprint that has been designed.

Policy
In order to generate consistent name accross instances of the service, a naming policy has been created. The naming policy provide the recipe to generate name based on the network function type, e.g. VNF, VNC, VF-MODULE, etc...
For the vFW use case, we have a specific policy for each VFC
