A Network Function Virtualization (NFV) system recovers from a Virtual Network Function (NFV) crash. Initially, an NFV Infrastructure (NFVI) executes the VNF, and the VNF transfers VNF state data to a VNF database. An NFV orchestrator detects a VNF crash and retrieves the VNF state data for the crashed VNF from the VNF state database. The NFV orchestrator directs the NFVI to install a new VNF to replace the crashed VNF based on the VNF state data. The NFVI installs the new VNF based on the VNF state data.
