Abstract
A virtualized network function management apparatus includes: an orchestration part; a virtualized network function management part; a storage part that holds priority hardware information in which a combination of physical resources, for an individual virtualized network function, as a deployment candidate of the virtualized network function is associated with information about a priority set to the combination of physical resources; and a virtualized infrastructure management part. The virtualized infrastructure management part reserves a combination of physical resources that satisfies resource and constraint information necessary for the virtualized network function in accordance with the priorities in the priority hardware information. Finally, the virtualized network function management apparatus creates a virtual machine by using the reserved combination of physical resources.
