Facebook Disaggregate: Networking

Making Open Networking Easy to Build

Featuring Jeremy Schulman

Jeremy Schulman (@nwkautomaniac) of Apstra describes how networks made of a combination of open network devices and more traditional vendor equipment can coexist and easily be managed by a central software solution.

He goes through a demonstration of such a scenario, where machines of different types are provisioned and configured to work together and provide connectivity between the servers attached to each switch.

Recorded at the Facebook Disaggregate: Networking event in Silicon Valley on January 24, 2017.
