The Software-Defined Networking (SDN) paradigm allows networking hardware to be made “malleable” and remotely manageable by the so-called SDN controllers. However, the current SDN landscape is extremely fragmented. Different open and closed source controller frameworks such as Open-Daylight [1], Ryu [2], Floodlight [3], etc. exist. Porting SDN applications from one such platform to another is practically impossible and so, SDN users like network operators face a situation where they are either confined to applications working for the platform of their choice, or forced to re-implement their solutions every time they encounter a new platform.

Abstract
The Software-Defined Networking (SDN) paradigm allows networking hardware to be made “malleable” and remotely manageable by the so-called SDN controllers. However, the current SDN landscape is extremely fragmented. Different open and closed source controller frameworks such as Open-Daylight [1], Ryu [2], Floodlight [3], etc. exist. Porting SDN applications from one such platform to another is practically impossible and so, SDN users like network operators face a situation where they are either confined to applications working for the platform of their choice, or forced to re-implement their solutions every time they encounter a new platform.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
