Under the terms of the collaboration, the TOSCA (Topology and Orchestration Specification for Cloud Applications)-based Cloudify platform from GigaSpaces will support the VMware vCloud NFV platform.

GigaSpaces Cloudify is an open source TOSCA -based cloud orchestration software platform. VMware vCloud NFV is a carrier-grade, production-proven NFV services delivery, operations and management platform that offers a common platform and operating model to enable multi-vendor, multi-domain services.
