ONOS Project works with the Linux Foundation to develop SDN/NFV

recently, ONOS Community and Linux Foundation jointly announced a strategic partnership, the two sides will jointly develop open source SDN/NFV solution.
The ONOS project works with the Linux Foundation to create disruptive SDN solutions that focus on open source platforms, white boxes, a range of network control and management applications, and the ability to quickly create and deploy innovative services for service providers to achieve SDN/NFV economic benefits. It also helps manufacturers and service providers to create new business models. As a collaborative project for Linux, ONOS will benefit from the foundation's expertise in managing open source projects, as well as community engagement, and enhancing the responsiveness of projects in key strategic areas of open source processes and practices.
In addition, thevarguy.com points out that this is not the first time that the Linux Foundation has partnered with SDN companies. Since 2013, the Linux Foundation has provided support to opendaylight. ONOS and opendaylight overlap in key areas. For the matter, Opendaylight's senior officials say it is good for the industry and Opendaylight, though they will face some challenges in the short term.
Note: ONOS is made by on. Lab uses Java and Apache to deliver the first open Source SDN network operating system, primarily for service providers and Enterprise backbones. Onos is designed to meet the needs of the network to achieve high reliability, good performance and flexibility. In addition, Onos's north-to-interface abstraction layer and API support simple application development, while the south-to-Interface abstraction layer and interface can control openflow or traditional devices.  

Onos is the industry's first open-source SDN controller platform for carrier business scenarios, created and led by the industry's top operators and the most integrated equipment providers, focusing on operator networks and business scenarios, taking into account the high performance, reliability, security and scalability needs of operators, With a good initial architecture design, it is more in line with the carrier's future-oriented business and network development strategy requirements, can end-to-end support operators from the WAN to the data center business on-demand, real-time, automated deployment, and resource allocation and optimization adjustment requirements.
