Having proven itself remarkably well across the IT landscape and enterprise cloud, the open source development model is now being applied full force to overcome the most daunting challenges in networking and NFV. As end users build more agile and cost effective networks that eschew proprietary solutions, they are investing heavily in open source platforms. In order to meet market demand as well as achieve strict carrier-grade requirements, collaboration among open source networking projects is vital. OpenStack has been involved with OPNFV since inception--an integration that is deepening across the communities and leadership of both projects. OpenStack is the Virtualization Integration Manager (VIM) layer in OPNFV and contributes to multiple projects. OPNFV, in turn, contributes requirements, developers and code upstream for features in OpenStack. Join us to learn how this collaboration is accelerating open source NFV and transforming the network.
The Telecom/NFV track is brought to you by OpenStack and OPNFV.
Attendees can expect to learn best practices and tips and tricks for cross-collaboration on how to integrate open source networking projects. Via real workd examples, speakers from OPNFV and OpenStack will demonstrate how they are approaching network transformation via open source NFV.
