Abstract: Examples of an apparatus and method for propagating a modification to a service graph are described herein. Relationships between services in the service graph are identified in response to a modification to a service. The relationship is a reference between pairs of services in the service graph. Based on the identified relationships, a modification is propagated.

Abstract: A method of managing virtual network functions for a network, the method including providing a virtual network function (VNF) including a number of virtual network function components (VNFCs) of a number of different types, each VNFC comprising a virtual machine (VM) executing application software. The method further includes creating for up to all VNFC types a number of deactivated VMs having application software, monitoring at least one performance level of the VNF, and scaling-out the VNF by activating a number of deactivated VMs of a number of VNFC types when the at least one performance level reaches a scale-out threshold.
