On Feb. 18, ONF put out a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.opennetworking.org\/news-and-events\/press-releases\/2178-open-networking-foundation-launches-open-source-software-development-community-and-code-repository-website\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">press release<\/a>\u00a0unveiling the new Open Source SDN\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/opensourcesdn.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">web site<\/a>\u00a0and community, which will be guided by the SLC.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"toc-hId--714406725\">Why does this matter?<\/h2>\n<p>The ONF has done ground-breaking work in developing bedrock technology for Software Defined Networking (SDN), including the OpenFlow standard. But the ONF and its supporters \u2013 mostly large tech companies and service providers \u2013 can\u2019t do it alone.<\/p>\n<p>The vibrant but relatively small open source SDN communities have so far been focused on esoteric technical components such as controllers with only a handful of network management use-cases. The\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.opendaylight.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">OpenDaylight project<\/a>\u00a0and the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/onosproject.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Open Network Operating System<\/a>\u00a0are great first steps in open source SDN, along with a handful of lesser-known open source SDN controllers that are intended for specific applications. The next step is creating a practical and comprehensive SDN distribution (think Linux distributions such as Ubuntu and Red Hat) that is open source, and therefore free from vendor lock-in, and embraces the entire application community eco-system that will enable both known and emerging applications that can benefit from SDN. This requires a full stack of control plane software, data plane software, management tools, debuggers and more.<\/p>\n<p>This can\u2019t happen without the education of application developers and the contribution of hundreds, if not thousands, of engineers and software developers from around the world \u2013 much as other open-source projects such as Linux and Apache have succeeded through the collective intellectual effort of massive communities.<\/p>\n<p>The SLC\u2019s goal is building up the Open Source SDN community to deliver that full stack. There\u2019s no better way to learn what works than by releasing more and more open source software \u2013 putting the \u201cS\u201d in SDN \u2013 and then seeing how the market responds.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re interested in the future of networking, I encourage you to visit\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.opensourcesdn.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">opensourcesdn.org<\/a>\u00a0and join me in becoming part of the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It takes a village to raise a child, and it will take an open, energetic and innovative community to move networking from today\u2019s outdated foundation of purpose-built hardware to a new world defined by software.
