If you didn't think the world needed another Software Defined Networking ( #SDN ) project, bad luck: you've got one anyway: it's called #OpenO and hopes to put SDN and Network Function Virtualisation ( #NFV ) in the same yoke. If that sounds familiar, it's because #ATT also wants to lead the open source world into a combination SDN/NFV – but its project with the #Linux Foundation seems to be running late. AT&T's promise to release its #ECOMP – Enhanced Control, Orchestration, Management and Policy platform – came in July. In fact, Open-O seems to be in much the same boat: it's announced its first release, but not yet published the code. It apparently involves seven discrete projects and #OpenStack, but beyond that, it's still vapourware. The China-driven project, under the umbrella of the #Linux Foundation, got its first public outing with #Huawei demonstrating Open-O Sun, its combined SDN/NFV orchestrator, at the Operations Transformation Forum in Wuzhen, China. Huawei says the project includes code from China Mobile and four other companies. The #YANG and Oasis' #TOSCA (Topology and Orchestration Specification for Cloud Applications) data models are supported, and Open-O includes components from #Canonical, #Raisecom and #RedHat, Huawei says. Open-O's members include #ChinaMobile, #ChinaTelecom, #HongKongTelecom (HKT), #Ericsson, #GigaSpaces, #Intel, and #ZTE. ®
