Software-Defined Networking (SDN) source code refers to the programming and implementation of SDN principles in network control and management. SDN is a modern networking approach that separates the control plane from the data plane, allowing centralized control of network traffic through software-based controllers.
The source code for SDN solutions is typically written in languages like Python, Java, or C++ and includes components such as SDN controllers (e.g., OpenDaylight, ONOS, Ryu), southbound APIs (e.g., OpenFlow), and northbound APIs for application integration.
Open-source SDN projects provide developers with the ability to customize, enhance, and deploy flexible networking solutions for automation, security, and scalability in enterprise and data center environments.
