Why submitting a PoC Proposal?

The ETSI INT AFI PoCs are an opportunity to bring together potential “Consumers” of GANA Framework in the Industry space such as - Developers of Software Components for autonomics, ISVs (Independent Software Vendors), OSS vendors, Traditional networking equipment vendors, Network Operators in their potential position as Software Companies to demonstrate and showcase GANA implementations and articulation with reference models for existing reference architectures as well as the other emerging complementary networking paradigms of NFV, SDN. This will lead to build trust and confidence on autonomics products and solutions and to guide and facilitate the adoption of autonomics by the Industry

Do all of the PoC Team members have to be ETSI members / INT AFI WG participants?

No, for practical reasons, it is only required that the main point of contact of the POC is an

and summarized in the PoC Framework page
