Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is bringing DevOps [1] capabilities to current networks, reducing the time-to-market for new services and thereby providing a strong incentive for adoption to Service Providers and Network Operators. However, the current SDN landscape is extremely fragmented, so that different open and closed source controller frameworks such as OpenDaylight [2], Ryu [3], Floodlight [4] or ONOS [5] exist. This jeopardises the gains of introducing SDN, since porting SDN applications from one platform to another is time consuming and requires high effort. As a consequence, SDN users (e.g. network operators) face the danger of vendor (or platform) lock-in: they are confined to applications working for the platform of their choice, or forced to re-implement their solutions when they choose a new platform.

Abstract
Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is bringing DevOps [1] capabilities to current networks, reducing the time-to-market for new services and thereby providing a strong incentive for adoption to Service Providers and Network Operators. However, the current SDN landscape is extremely fragmented, so that different open and closed source controller frameworks such as OpenDaylight [2], Ryu [3], Floodlight [4] or ONOS [5] exist. This jeopardises the gains of introducing SDN, since porting SDN applications from one platform to another is time consuming and requires high effort. As a consequence, SDN users (e.g. network operators) face the danger of vendor (or platform) lock-in: they are confined to applications working for the platform of their choice, or forced to re-implement their solutions when they choose a new platform.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
