ON.Lab's Parulkar: Vendors 'Gaming' Open Source StandardsThere's a tug of war going on between vendors' closed proprietary systems and the open source industry's efforts to keep open source projects "open." That was one of the main messages in Tuesday's Open Networking Summit (ONS) keynote address by ON.Lab Executive Director Guru Parulkar. Parulkar said the open source industry needs to create standards more quickly and without allowing them to be "gamed" by the large equipment vendors. While open source networking, including white boxes and open source software, have moved the ball forward in terms of network virtualization, fragmented platforms have allowed large vendors to implement and manage closed proprietary systems. (See ON.Lab: Open Source Must Also Integrate.) The open source standards groups and communities need to band together, Parulkar said, citing the work that the ONOS open source project is doing with MEF and the Broadband Forum as a primary example. For more on the Open Networking Summit, join us on March 24 when Parulkar is the guest on the next edition of Telco Transformation's On-the-Air Thursdays radio show.
