Information:

The LFN Developer & Testing Forum is being held over four days, June 13th - 16th, 2022. After a long period apart from one another, LFN project technical communities are once again gathering face-to-face to progress our releases; discuss project architecture, direction, and integration points; and further innovate through the open source networking stack. We will use a combination of online tools to create a productive and interactive virtual meeting environment. The event is free of cost and registration is required. 

Current confirmed projects are the following: 

5G Super Blueprint: The 5G SBP community will demonstrate the work that has been done in the ORAN SC community to create an End-to-End package that spans across multiple community projects (ORAN, ONAP,...) in order to create a workable environment to deploy the ORAN SMO using ONAP components. We will then perform a live demo using UNH lab demonstrating the deployment and auto testing of the ORAN interfaces. A second 5G SBP session will demonstrate the work that has been done in the Magma community for 5G SA Core. Existing & ongoing Feature developments, testing updates, architecture & working demo.

Anuket: Our mission is - Empower the global communications community by creating and developing reference cloud infrastructure models, architectures, conformance programs and tools to deliver network services faster, more reliably, and securely. We'll be hosting some meetings exploring future development topics, discussing operating procedures, and fostering collaboration with other projects.

EMCO: Edge Multi-Cluster Orchestrator- will be discussing a wide range of use cases and capabilities, along with some demos. We look forward to vibrant discussions on enhancing and adding to the wide ranging versatility of EMCO.

FD.io: FD.io will be discussing manageability of vpp.

L3AF: At L3AF, our vision is to create a marketplace for eBPF programs (Kernel Functions), where users and developers can share their own signed kernel functions and download kernel functions from others. Our L3AF platform can then be used to orchestrate and compose selected kernel functions from the marketplace to several business needs. In this way, L3AF provides developers with a cloud and vendor-agnostic platform for adding capabilities to an operating system at runtime. We believe that the creation of such a fully integrated software ecosystem around eBPF will unleash its full potential for community adoption.

ODIM: ODIM coordinates with other key SDOs and open source communities, with a focus on automation, simplification, consistency and interoperability of COTS and OSS infrastructure management solutions resulting in accelerating infrastructure deployments across segments, while lowering operational complexity and cost.

ONAP: The ONAP community will be hosting meetings for alignment of architecture, modeling, security and other aspects of system design as we look toward future releases of the platform.

OpenDaylight: OpenDaylight will be hosting some “how to get engaged” discussions and introduce new projects that aim to scale OpenDaylight for 2021 and into the future.

Tungsten Fabric: The Tungsten Fabric community will focus on "hands-on" development work for the next release of Tungsten Fabric, refining the Release Process, improving the CI/CD pipeline, and exploring cross-community integration with projects such as ONAP, DPDK, and more.For questions, please contact events@lfnetworking.org.

XGVela: An open source cloud native PaaS for applications and telco network functions to enable new services.
