HP is broadening its support for software-defined networking (SDN), with the release of a range of hardware and software designed to exploit the OpenFlow communications protocol. Software-defined ...

OpenFlow 2.0 doesn't formally exist yet, but one possible shape of the protocol — a more flexible take on packet switching — is starting to form. A research paper outlines the idea and sums it up ...

An observation that we've made (and I'm sure others have as well), is the need for a standard OpenFlow library to provide both the agent and controller implementation of the protocol that everyone can ...

If you have been following the rise of software-defined networking (SDN) recently as it makes its way into the thinking of enterprises the world over, it is likely you will have come across OpenFlow.

Some say OpenFlow and software-defined networking are more useful to huge data center-driven companies and network operators than to the enterprise As most participants at the inaugural Open ...

Researchers can adjust network infrastructure to boost bandwidth, optimize latency and save power using an experimental technology called OpenFlow. OpenFlow is in the proof-of-concept stage but ...

Will this new packet-forwarding mechanism replace OpenFlow for software-defined networking? IP packet forwarding techniques traditionally have relied on taking the shortest path to the destination IP ...
