Abstract:
Concepts and technologies are disclosed herein for discovery and chaining of virtual functions. An application request can be received from a requestor. The application request can include a request to create an application. Based upon the application request, an application topology associated with the application can be determined. The application topology can define virtual functions and a data flow among the virtual functions. Creation of the plurality of virtual functions in a computing environment can be triggered and an indication of capabilities of the virtual functions can be received. The virtual functions can be chained together to provide functionality associated with the application.
