Neutron Done the SDN Way


Details
Hey Stackers!
We have a morning meetup for you on January 26th all about Networking at the Toga Networks office. Learn about how they do everything from Security Groups to Service Chaining.
Agenda:
Dragonflow is an open source distributed control plane implementation of Neutron which is an integral part of OpenStack.
Dragonflow introduces innovative solutions and features to implement networking and distributed network services in a manner that is both lightweight and simple to extend, yet targeted towards performance-intensive and latency-sensitive applications.
Dragonflow aims at solving the performance and scale problems in Neutron leveraging lessons learned from running OpenStack at scale and doing it the SDN way.
We will cover the following topics:
-
Dragonflow Progress
-
Pluggable topology and policy distribution model
-
Supported distributed networking services (DHCP, Routing and more)
-
Innovative and interesting solutions for some hot networking topics:
- Security groups
- Container networking
- Service chaining & topology injection
- Integration with smart NICs for h/w offloading
Speakers: Gal Sagie and Eran Gampel
Schedule:
9:15AM - 9:30AM - Gathering and Welcome
9:30 - 10:45 - Dragonflow Introduction and Roadmap
10:45 - 11:15 - Break and Mingling
11:15 - 12:00 - Next Generation Service Chaining (Topology Service Injection)
