OpenDaylight’s Apache Karaf Report

08/04/2016

ODL-AKR-2016Apache Karaf is at the core of any OpenDaylight system; the architecture and capabilities of Apache Karaf will, in the end, place an upper bound on what OpenDaylight can do as a whole. In this presentation, Savoir Technologies’ Jamie Goodyear will review recent events in the Apache Karaf development community, discuss the current state of Apache Karaf and its sub-projects, the challenges it faces, and look forward to how Apache Karaf may address those challenges.

OpenDaylight Summit (http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/opendaylight-summit) is the industry’s flagship event for technical discussions and implementations of open, programmable networks. The summit brings together users, developers and the SDN community to discuss, debate and demonstrate the latest technologies and trends in open SDN. Hear directly from developers about what OpenDaylight is doing to support a range of use cases including NFV and Cloud, Traffic Engineering and New Service Creation, and give the community direct feedback on which features matter most.
