Software-Defined Networking (SDN) with OpenStack oleh Sreenivas Voruganti

Key FeaturesLearn how to leverage critical SDN technologies for OpenStack Networking APIs via plugins and driversChampion the skills of achieving complete SDN with OpenStack with specific use cases and capabilities only covered in this titleDiscover exactly how you could implement cost-effective OpenStack SDN integration for your organizationBook DescriptionNetworking is one the pillars of OpenStack and OpenStack Networking are designed to support programmability and Software-Defined Networks. OpenStack Networking has been evolving from simple APIs and functionality in Quantum to more complex capabilities in Neutron.Armed with the basic knowledge, this book will help the readers to explore popular SDN technologies, namely, OpenDaylight (ODL), OpenContrail, Open Network Operating System (ONOS) and Open Virtual Network (OVN). The first couple of chapters will provide an overview of OpenStack Networking and SDN in general. Thereafter a set of chapters are devoted to OpenDaylight (ODL), OpenContrail and their integration with OpenStack Networking. The book then introduces you to Open Network Operating System (ONOS) which is fast becoming a carrier grade SDN platform. We will conclude the book with overview of upcoming SDN projects within OpenStack namely OVN and Dragonflow.By the end of the book, the readers will be familiar with SDN technologies and know how they can be leveraged in an OpenStack based cloud.What you will learnUnderstand how OVS is used for Overlay networksGet familiar with SDN Controllers with Architectural details and functionalitiesCreate core ODL services and understand how OpenDaylight integrates with OpenStack to provide SDN capabilitiesUnderstand OpenContrail architecture and how it supports key SDN functionality such as Service Function Chaining (SFC) along with OpenStackExplore Open Network Operating System (ONOS) – a carrier grade SDN platform embraced by the biggest telecom service providersLearn about upcoming SDN technologies in OpenStack such as Dragonflow and OVNAbout the AuthorSriram Subramanian is an experienced professional with over 19 years experience of building networking and network management products.
