What are Software-Defined Networking Solutions for Rackspace OpenStack?

Software-defined networking solutions provide centralized software control of network operations by decoupling the control plane from the data-forwarding plane. These systems allow IT teams to program, automate, and optimize network behavior—such as routing, load balancing, segmentation and security—via APIs rather than manually configuring individual routers and switches. They improve visibility, flexibility and scalability and facilitate hybrid cloud, multi-cloud and dynamic application traffic demands. Many solutions support network services virtualization, policy-based provisioning and real-time analytics to respond faster to business changes. Ultimately, software-defined networking solutions empower organizations to run agile, software-driven networks that can adapt and evolve along with modern applications. Compare and read user reviews of the best Software-Defined Networking solutions for Rackspace OpenStack currently available using the table below. This list is updated regularly.

    MidoNet

    MidoNet

    MidoNet

    MidoNet is an Apache licensed production grade network virtualization software for Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) clouds. MidoNet decouples your IaaS cloud from your network hardware, creating an intelligent software abstraction layer between your end hosts and your physical network. This network abstraction layer allows the cloud operator to move what has traditionally been hardware-based network appliances into a software-based multi-tenant virtual domain. MidoNet brings production-grade distributed overlay networking to OpenStack. Features such as reduced complexity of physical network, high availability (any server, any network service, any time), scalability through hierarchy, reduced protocols, otimized network traffic with minimal overhead, vastly improved fault tolerance.

    Pica8 PICOS
    The one-of-a-kind PICOS open NOS with tightly coupled control planes gives network operators surgical, non-disruptive control of their enterprise applications, deep and dynamic traffic monitoring, and even attack mitigation, all in real time. There’s no better way to implement zero-trust networking and software-defined perimeters than PICOS. Our flagship open network operating system installs on 1G- to 100G-interface open switches from a broad array of Tier 1 manufacturers. This fully featured license offers the most comprehensive support for enterprise features on the market. It includes the Debian Linux distribution, with an unmodified kernel for maximum DevOps programmability. Enterprise Edition also includes AmpCon, an Ansible-based automation framework that couples Zero-Touch Provisioning (ZTP) with the Open Network Install Environment (ONIE) to simplify installation and operation of open network switches across the enterprise.
