Title: OpenStack Networking of the Future: a Look with Industry Startup Founders and 451 Chief Analyst Eric Hanselman

 

OpenStack Neutron has its known weaknesses. Neutron's problems are both endemic to its own design, and the software-defined networking systems that it plugs into it.

 

We’re proposing a Startup Founders’ panel from the most prominent networking startups to talk about the innovations in networking today. Panelists will give their individual viewpoints on how startup technologies are disrupting proprietary networking standards set forth decades ago. The founders will also offer a perspective as to why the venture community is so bullish about making million-dollar investments in this layer of the infrastructure.
