Compute elasticity, for instance, is reasonably allocated with virtual machines, containers, and orchestrators and managed with CI/CD pipelines. Network elasticity seems to be lacking in implementation. In this article, we show that cloud native network functions are an attempt to bring network applications into the cloud native world.
