**1. Purpose**
==============
- This document focuses on setting and evolving VNF standards that will facilitate industry discussion, participation, alignment and evolution towards comprehensive and actionable VNF best practices and standard interface.
-- The goal is to accelerate adoption of VNF best practices which will increase innovation, minimize customization needed to onboard VNFs as well as reduce implementation complexity, time and cost for all impacted stakeholders.

- The intent is do drive harmonization of VNFs across VNF providers, Network Cloud Service providers (NCSPs) and the overall Network Function Virtualization (NFV) ecosystem by providing both long term vision as well as short tem focus and clarity.
