 I'm Kyle Mestri. I'm a distinguished engineer at IBM and I'm also a member of the OpenStack Technical Committee. Thank you for joining us Kyle. So the topic of NFV network function virtualization has been a huge topic at this and past summits. So what makes NFV and OpenStack such a good match? I think that's great. You know that NFV and OpenStack really are a great match and I think there's a lot of reasons for that. I think when you look at what NFV wants to do, you know, they want a platform like OpenStack that's going to allow them to deploy, orchestrate and manage all of their virtual network functions. So I think from that, just from that perspective alone it works really great. I think the other option is, you know, OpenStack's plugability across all the different layers allow them to really piece together the exact solution that they want, whether that's choice of hypervisors, storage back ends, networking solutions. They can really kind of piece together a solution that works really well for them and their exact needs around NFV. So I think those reasons alone are really why NFV and OpenStack are working well together. Great. So Kyle, obviously you've been very heavily involved in the Neutron project. What is Neutron doing to make OpenStack the ideal match for NFV? So Neutron has done a lot of really good things to help enable NFV. On the technical front, we've really worked to allow different blueprints and code in with the different NFV working groups inside OpenStack. So, you know, we've been iterating a while on just basic things like trunk ports, which we're really hopeful will land in Mataka at this point. But we've even done some other things around like security group work to allow like unaddressed ports and things like this, which are really important when you're running these VNFs on OpenStack like that. So that's been good. I think the other thing we've done in Neutron is kind of the new governance model we have around the stadium has really allowed new plugins and drivers to come in, but also new APIs. And one of the really critical ones for the NFV side has been SFC or Service Function Chaining. So I think that project just has started about six months ago or so. It's really been iterating fast. And in fact, we're already seeing some implementations of it. There's already a thread on the mailing list lately where both Midonet and OVN are experimenting with actually implementing the SFC API. And SFC is one of the critical things for NFV. So Neutron has been pretty awesome and successful in working on that. Great, Kyle. Thank you for your time. Excellent. Thanks for being there. It was great.
