Open source has now become the de facto way to build software to speed up software development. Working within the LFN community, developers have access to the broadest set of open source networking capabilities and integration points, with projects spanning Software Defined Networking (SDN), Network Functions Virtualization (NFV), Management and Orchestration (MANO), automation, analytics, data plane acceleration, and more. They can leverage this community-driven work to develop and onboard networking software in simpler, more efficient ways. This speeds up time to market for network services and infrastructure. In turn, businesses, service providers and government agencies have the confidence that they can rely on community-built, interoperable solutions to support their end user needs.
