- Brian O’Connor: Software Engineer
The Open Networking Lab was founded as a 501 (c) (3) non-profit to pursue our vision of what networking could be for the
public good.
Networks today are described too often as closed, proprietary, complex, operationally expensive, inflexible – in a nutshell, they impede innovation and progress rather than enabling them.
We have a vision
of what networking could be through the promise of Software Defined Networking (SDN). With SDN, the control plane is separated from the data plane, the hardware innovation cycles are decoupled from the software innovation cycles. In an SDN-enabled world, Internet and Cloud innovation are able to accelerate innovation while significantly reducing the costs of building and operating networks.
