Description

MidoNet is a robust network virtualization solution licensed under Apache that is designed specifically for Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) environments. By effectively separating the IaaS cloud from the underlying network hardware, MidoNet introduces an advanced software abstraction layer that connects end hosts to the physical network seamlessly. This innovative layer empowers cloud operators to transition traditional hardware-based network appliances into a flexible software-centric multi-tenant ecosystem. Additionally, MidoNet enhances OpenStack by providing production-grade distributed overlay networking capabilities. Key advantages include a simplified physical network structure, superior availability across any server and service at any time, hierarchical scalability, minimized protocol usage, optimized network traffic with low overhead, and significantly enhanced fault tolerance, which collectively contribute to more efficient cloud operations. Overall, MidoNet represents a significant advancement in the evolution of cloud networking solutions.

Description

Open vSwitch is a high-quality, multilayer virtual switch that operates under the open-source Apache 2.0 license. It is specifically engineered to facilitate extensive network automation through programming extensions, while still accommodating standard management interfaces and protocols such as NetFlow, sFlow, IPFIX, RSPAN, CLI, LACP, and 802.1ag. Additionally, it is built to allow distribution across various physical servers, akin to VMware's vNetwork distributed vSwitch or Cisco's Nexus 1000V. Open vSwitch is implemented in numerous products and is utilized in many substantial production environments, some of which are extraordinarily large. Each stable version undergoes rigorous testing, including a regression suite that consists of hundreds of system-level tests and thousands of unit tests. Furthermore, alongside OVS, the Open vSwitch community actively develops the OVN project, which enhances OVS by providing native support for virtual network abstractions, such as virtual L2 and L3 overlays and security groups. This commitment to continuous improvement ensures that Open vSwitch remains a robust solution for network virtualization in diverse settings.
