HP announces OpenSwitch, an open-source network operating system 11 years ago
The release today is about opening it up for the community participation. Making sure we release it early and not overbaked. So the community can shape the direction. We wanted to have one real HW platform that would be fully functional + Docker container image, which is being heavily used in the development and CIT. Other Broadcom Trident II/Tomahawk based platforms would be quite easy to support. For other ASICs, we would be glad to get their vendors involved.
