OpenFlow wins Best Demo Award at SIGCOMM 2008
August 21st, 2008, Guido Appenzeller in OpenFlow Blog
Today at the SIGCOMM 2008 conference in Seattle our demo of OpenFlow for virtual machine mobility won the award for the best demonstration. An abstract of the demo can be found on the SIGCOMM site here.
This demo was a huge group effort between Stanford, Cisco and HP. In the end everything worked perfectly and the response from SIGCOMM attendees was overwhelming. Congratulations to everyone who contributed including David, Glen, Brandon, David, Jad, Guido, Guru, Nick, Mendel, Monica, Masa, Miles, Adam and Bob at Stanford. Thanks to Sailesh, Valentina, Pere and Flavio at Cisco and Jean, Praveen, Sujata, Charles and Rick at HP.
We’ll have more about the demo including video and photos later.
Also congratulations to Neda, Sara, Yashar, Brandon and David to their second place for the NetFPGA demo!
