TeraFlowSDN
Where SDN Meets Smart Connectivity
What's new Release 7 has landed!The ETSI Software Development Group TeraFlowSDN (SDG TFS) is developing an open source cloud native SDN controller enabling smart connectivity services for future networks beyond 5G.
Network Transformation journey we started some time ago, complementing our open-source toolset with powerful, cloud-native service orchestration capabilities, and allowing us to bridge gaps in the application of standards to network automation.
Our mission
SDG ETSI TeraFlowSDN (SDG TFS) is developing an open source cloud native SDN controller enabling smart networks and services for 6G and beyond.
The group liaises with relevant standards bodies and projects working on network transformation such as the IETF, ETSI ZSM, NFV, MEC, mWT, SAI, PDL, ENI, OSM and OSL.
Based on a cloud-native, micro-services architecture, TeraFlowSDN can be integrated with ETSI Open Source MANO and ETSI OpenSlice, providing end to end network orchestration and control and a versatile toolbox for different ETSI groups and research initiatives to experiment with new features for flow aggregation, management, network equipment integration, AI and ML-based security, and forensic evidence for multi-tenancy.
