When open source competitors work together, we all win
Open Source software is great. On that, I am fairly confident, we can all agree. The ability to obtain and modify the source code to the software that you rely upon...well, it's a major win.

That is exactly what... Read More

Open Networking Foundation director details SDN directions, OpenDaylight impact
The third annual Open Networking Summit, an SDN conference organized by the Open Networking Foundation, convened this week just after ONF members Cisco and IBM unveiled a separate effort to define an open source SDN framework. Unlike the user-driven ONF, OpenDaylight is a vendor-driven project to cultivate a system of SDN applications, but it also raised suspicion of the group's real intent: Is it designed to stall SDN's momentum and the threat, real or perceived, it could pose to incumbent hardware vendors? ONF Executive Director Dan Pitt discussed some of these topics with Network World Managing Editor Jim Duffy at the Santa Clara, Calif., conference. Read More
