Is OPNFV Just an OpenStack Extension?

OPNFV has just released Brahmaputra which is the first major version. Openstack is the dominant component in OPNFV. But what does that mean? Which OpenStack modules are the important ones within OPNFV and why are they chosen? Which components did OPNFV add to OpenStack when building up its architecture? This session will provide some insights how OPNFV is using OpenStack and how OpenStack modules need to interwork with other components to create a carrier platform for NFV.

 

The Telecom/NFV track is brought to you by OpenStack and OPNFV.


What can I expect to learn?

Attendees will gain a broader understanding about carrier use cases of OpenStack. They will learn about the interworkingof OpenStack with other components in an OPNFV environment.Carrier customers will appreciate the nuances of networking which missed the Moore's law in compute and storage and seems catching up as AT&T touts. The evolution of OpenStack beyond Core modules is a must for NFV use cases and the SDN integration is one which is critical. Thus all Telco/NFV and even network operators will see a great value debating the features that will make OpenStack raise its level to meet new challenges in communications and integration for future.
