OpenVirtex
A network hypervisor that creates multiple virtual, programmable SDN networks on top of a single physical infrastructure.
What is OpenVirtex?
OpenVirteX is a network hypervisor that creates multiple virtual, programmable Software-Defined Networking (SDN) networks on top of a single physical infrastructure. It solves the problem of network resource sharing by allowing multiple tenants to operate independent virtual networks with full control over addressing, topology, and network operating systems.
Network researchers, cloud providers, data center operators, and organizations needing to run multiple isolated SDN networks on shared physical infrastructure.
Developers choose OpenVirteX because it provides programmable network virtualization with tenant isolation, full address space flexibility, and support for multiple OpenFlow versions, enabling research and deployment of virtual SDN networks without physical infrastructure constraints.
