Abstract

A method for placing a virtual network function (VNF) in a datacenter system based on historical data. The method includes receiving, by a placement service from a client device, a VNF placement request that includes an identifier of the VNF, wherein the VNF placement request requests placement of an instantiation of the VNF with a node in a set of candidate nodes of the datacenter system; calculating, by the placement service, a set of similarity values between the set of candidate nodes of the datacenter system and the historical data, wherein the historical data represents previous placements of the VNF in the datacenter system, including performance indicators associated with these placements; and determining, by the placement service, a placement node from the set of candidate nodes for placing the instantiation of the VNF based on the set of similarity values.
