Technical Communities Overview

ONF member companies and their representatives can participate in a variety of ways to fulfill ONF’s mission to accelerate the adoption of Open SDN.

Our technical communities are organized into Areas, Councils and Groups. Areas handle specific issues related to Software-Defined Networking (SDN), and collaborate with the world’s leading experts on SDN and the OpenFlow® Standard regarding SDN concepts, frameworks, architecture, software, standards and certifications. Councils provide overall leadership with respect to strategy, operational execution and technical direction of the organization. Groups provide guidance and advise ONF on activities to help accomplish the organization’s goals.

If your company is not a member, please contact us to learn more about the membership benefits and how your company can participate in the SDN revolution.
