As everybody knows about VM placement, VM Migration, and VM management. But in cloud computing, there are various APIs, micro-services and code infrastructure for DevOps. Therefore, is there any research scope related to container, docker and the Kubernetes?
Container is the future of virtualization. The Linux Foundation is working from Augest 2018 on developing Cloud-native Container Network Function (CNF) to be used with ETSI NFV architectural platform.
