NFV & SDN Summit 2014: Solutions for Network Virtualization
What was previously known as the SDN Summit will become the NFV & SDN Summit in 2014. The second edition of this Summit in 2013 attracted more than 400 participants.
Together with the collocated MPLS SDN World Congress, the total audience for NFV & SDN Summit reached 1350 people. Upperside targets +1500 participants for the 2014 edition.
NFV & SDN Summit Agenda: Architecture, Standard Progress, Service Chaining, Cloud NFV, OpenSource
The 2014 program will pay particular attention to NFV architecture and standardization process. Principal issue addressed by the participants will be: “How to combine NFV with SDN”. Other sessions will cover Service chaining, OpenSource, Cloud aspects and performance issues. A large session is dedicated to current use cases and first NFV&SDN implementations. Particular attention will be also payed on Non Intel Approaches for NFV.
The scientific committee has reviewed the proposals.

Colocation with MPLS SDN World Congress As was the case in 2013, NFV & SDN Summit and the collocated MPLS SDN World Congress will have a common agenda during the first day of the event, and will end with a debate addressing the most important technical issues impacting service providers’ network architectures.
The Interop Platform
The European Advanced Networking Test Center ( EANTC) in collaboration with Upperside Conferences invites vendors to a multi-vendor MPLS & SDN interoperability test in February 2014.
The objective of the tests is to verify protocol interoperability for service provider oriented toolkits focused on functionality, flexibility and adaptability of networks. Once we verify protocol interoperability we will construct an orchestrated data center to data center network.
Cloud delivery and orchestration will be the major focus of the interop along the topics of:
• Software Defined Networking (SDN): OpenFlow and PCE
• IPv6 Migration Scenarios
• MPLS and Ethernet Transport
• Data Center Interconnection
During the congress, EANTC will present results in regular guided tours to conference attendees.
The showcase will be open for the full four days of the conferences (Tuesday to Friday).
