Abstract:
Examples may include techniques for monitoring virtual network functions or network functions virtualization infrastructure. Examples include receiving performance measurement data from virtualized network functions arranged to support a network service or from network functions virtualization infrastructure composed to support the virtualized network functions. In some examples, corrective actions such as virtualized network function lifecycle management operations are initiated based on the received performance measurement data.

Claim (Index 11):
An apparatus implemented in a virtualized infrastructure manager (VIM) for network functions virtualization infrastructure (NFVI) comprising:\n circuitry; first logic for execution by the circuitry to receive performance measurement (PM) data generated by the NFVI while the NFVI supports one or more virtualized network functions (VNFs); second logic for execution by the circuitry to forward the PM data to a network functions virtualization orchestrator (NFVO) if the PM data is related to a network service provided by the one or more VNFs; and third logic for execution by the circuitry to forward the PM data to a virtualized network function manager (VNFM) arranged to manage the one or more VNFs if the PM data is related to one or more virtualized resources composed from the NFVI and consumed while the virtualized resources support the one or more VNFs.
