2:50 - Which network functions are like to move into the NFV cloud first?
4:39 - What are the implications of NFV for network equipment design?
7:22 - NFV implies Service Providers will build out massive compute infrastructure. Will this be base-matel commodity servers? Or will high-availability telco hardware be retained?
09:13 - What role will Radisys play in building the NFV ecosystem? Where can you add value?
