    I know Tacker project is aiming to develop fully functional NFVO and VNF manager for Openstack. What are  the opensource options available today for NFVO and  VNF Managers which can work on top of Openstack (interface with HEAT) and offer a full-fleshed ETSI NFV reference architecture complaint solution.

    Open Baton is the first example that comes to my mind, for both NFVO and as a generic VNFM. https://openbaton.github.io

    Hi Tom and Mohit - Not sure if you are aware, but our Company, EnterpriseWeb, which ran ETSI NFV proof-of-concept #1, "CloudNFV" and has won 6 consecutive TMF Live and Infocus awards, offers Service Orchestration, Resource Orchestration (NFVO) and generic VNFM. Our Platform is deployed in Tier-1 Telecom environments. By the way, we've actually collaborated with both Infosys and Verizon on Catalysts. below are a few links for your review. Best, Dave
