[ninux-dev] Prof. Scott Shenker - SDN lecture

[nemesis]

 Hi everyone,

 while I was in the US for the Google Mentor Summit I went to Berkley to 
 visit Mitar (Wlan Slovenia) and I met a bunch of people who work there.

 I told them I felt that the networking field seem to me locked, I feel 
 it has not been advancing at the same speed as other fields like web 
 development, virtualization and open hardware, I feel we are using 
 crappy stuff that was done decades ago and nobody dared to change (I was 
 even more convinced of it after working heavily on the Netengine 
 library).

 They told me to go and listen to prof. Scott Shenker lectures.

 I found it very interesting, at least the problems they are trying to 
 solve are real and affect us all. The solution (SDN) might be too 
 centralized to be of our liking, but still, we have to recognize they're 
 doing a huge work in overcoming the limitations we have today.

 I suggest you to watch:
