OSSDN Drives Interoperability

Bithika Khargharia shares an overview of three open source projects from ONF’s OpenSourceSDN.org. With SDN and a disaggregated network stack, interoperability is what enables best-of-breed choice and prevents vendor lock-in when the pieces are aggregated back in the context of use cases and solutions. This week I want to talk about three different ONF OpenSourceSDN.org […]
