    Abstract: It is provided an apparatus comprising interface circuitry, machine-readable instructions, and processing circuitry to execute the machine-readable instructions. The machine-readable instructions comprise instructions to receive a request of a virtual machine to access a resource of a network node, determine whether a number of available virtual functions associated to the resource falls below a predefined threshold and, if it is determined that the number of available virtual functions falls below the predefined threshold, emulate and/or para virtualize a physical function associated to the resource. The machine-readable instructions further comprise instructions to provide access to the resource via the emulated and/or para virtualized physical function for the virtual machine.
