OpenDaylight Summit 2016

A digital transformation brought about through the power of connectivity is taking place in almost every industry. One telecom network will deliver services to multiple industries. With programmable and service aware networks it becomes feasible to tie network capabilities to the needs of different applications that will enable operators to provide networks as-a-service basis: the network slice.

In this Presentation, Balaji Ethirajulu will discuss how SDN/ODL controllers & NFV enable networks to be broken out from their underlying physical infrastructures so that they can, programmatically, provide connectivity as a service. He will explain how to leverage the ODL/SDN capabilities to deliver 5G services to many vertical industries. The level of network programmability provided by ODL controller allows several network slices, customized and optimized for different service deployments.
