Title: Using OpenDaylight as an SDN Controller for OpenStack Deployments

Abstract

NetVirt is the central component of a complete open source network virtualization solution for OpenStack. NetVirt works together with Open vSwitch and hardware gateways in the dataplane to control a virtualized multi-tenant network for OpenStack deployments. This solution includes fully distributed layer 2 and layer 3 switching, and provides scalability and resiliency with OpenDaylight controller node clustering. NetVirt is also used as part of the Open Platform for NFV (OPNFV) project to support Service Function Chaining (SFC) in OpenStack deployments.

In this talk, we will provide an overview of OpenDaylight and the OVSDB NetVirt project, and describe how it is used in support of OpenStack and OPNFV.
