NEW YORK, Oct. 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- (ONUG, Technology Showcase Table #3) --The pioneer in software-defined network orchestration, Glue Networks, announced today that its Gluware platform is able to configure multiple vendor devices using software-defined feature models that are dynamically translated to each vendor's CLI/API during provisioning. Gluware, a software-defined network orchestration (SDNO) platform, enables IT teams to enforce centralized policy management across multi-vendor networks, physical or virtual, including the ability to seamlessly upgrade, downgrade or even swap vendor devices. Glue Networks will demonstrate orchestration of multi-vendor data center switches and seamless migration from a physical appliance to a virtual network function at the Open Network User Group (ONUG) on October 24 and 25, 2016.
Through SDNO, network teams are able to reduce complexity and increase agility in the transition from physical to virtual networks, even in multi-vendor network environments.
Jeff Gray, CEO and co-founder, Glue Networks, said: "Before Gluware, customized network orchestration was only available to large service providers with significant budgets. Enterprises had limited tools or per-vendor tools that forced engineers down a path of custom scripting, a practice that is error-prone and difficult to manage. Glue Networks provides centralized configuration management at scale to ease the transition from physical to virtual, in turn driving down costs and increasing agility."
David Talovic, president, Adaptive Integration, U.S., said: "Gluware allows our customers to orchestrate changes across a multitude of vendors so they can be agile and spend up to 60 percent less time performing operational network tasks. By leveraging Gluware's abstraction and modeling, customers can now have devices represent a container of network features regardless of the underlying brands. It gives them the freedom of vendor choice without the usual hassle of making it all work together operationally."
José Mauro, CEO, Multirede, Brazil, said: "Glue Networks technology introduces a disruptive concept for the network architecture and network operations of today, providing mechanisms to build a bridge between the existing multi-vendor proprietary ecosystem and an agnostic NFV environment. Multirede sees Gluware as a critical element for the networks of the future."
Phil Lees, CTO, WhiteSpider, UK, said: "Gluware is giving network engineers the capacity to model all network functions vendor-agnostically, bringing the DevOps model to network architecture without the need of full-stack network engineers. Networks can be glued with Gluware technology as a single orchestration panel designed to bring customization at scale."
