ICN deployment will be based on the grounds of saving CAPEX/OPEX and/or enabling new services. This paper makes a case for the latter leveraging, emerging technologies such as network function virtualization (NFV) and software defined networking (SDN). We propose a framework to enable ICN based service platform as virtualized network functions to enable several edge-cloud services such as enterprise applications, big data analytic, or M2M/IoT services. This platform is generic to support several ICN protocols and corresponding real-time and non-real time services leveraging ICN features such as name based routing, caching, multicasting, and flexible security techniques. As an implementation of this architecture, we discuss how a scalable network based conferencing solution can be realized over the proposed ICN platform and compare it with a peer-to-peer design through a performance analysis.
