MPLS SDN World Congress 2014: The New Architecture The 16th edition of the MPLS SDN World Congress will take place in Paris Marriott Rive Gauche next March 18-21, 2014. The objective set by Upper Side is to confirm the success of the 2013 edition. MPLS World, together with the collocated NFV & SDN Summit, attracted 1350 participants last March. This figure represents a new record number of participants attending this conference. MPLS SDN World and the NFV & SDN Summit: 1500 participants As was the case last year, the 16th Edition of MPLS SDN World will be jointly organized with the NFV & SDN Summit, whose second edition in 2013 attracted more than 400 participants, making this event the largest in Europe. The growing interest in this new technology should attract about 1500 attendees for the 2014 edition of the Congress. The Agenda: Data Center Virtualization, WAN Interconnection Issues and Segment Routing The main focus of the program will be on Data Center Virtualization, especially overlays and WAN interconnection issues. A large session will be dedicated to the Segment Routing initiative, launched during the 2013 edition of the Congress. Other sessions will cover OpenFlow aspects, performance and traffic engineering issues and mobile SDN. The 2014 agenda of the MPLS SDN World Congress 2014 is online. Save 15% on the conference registration fees until the 9th of February, 2014. The Interop Platform The European Advanced Networking Test Center (EANTC) in collaboration with Upperside Conferences invites vendors to a multi-vendor MPLS & SDN interoperability test in February 2014. The results of the interoperability tests will be demonstrated during the Congress.
