Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for providing throughput assurance in a virtual service chain. A virtual service chain formed by a plurality of stitched virtualized network functions running on a plurality of virtual nodes can be monitored. An inline statistics agent can generate inline statistics of the operation of the virtual service chain. Further, an actual throughput of the virtual service chain can be identified from the inline statistics. As follows, throughput assurance for the virtual service chain can be provided by comparing the actual throughput of the virtual service chain with an expected throughput of the virtual service chain.
