ONOS intro shortened from https://wiki.onosproject.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=2851517 + +ONOS stands for **O** pen **N** etwork **O** perating **S** ystem. ONOS provides the control plane +for a software-defined network (SDN), managing network components, such as switches and links, +and running software programs or modules to provide communication services to end hosts and +neighboring networks. + +ONOS provides a platform for SDN applications and use cases for routing, management, or +monitoring services for software-defined networks. + +ONOS can run as a distributed system across multiple servers, allowing it to use the CPU and +memory resources of multiple servers while providing fault tolerance in the face of server +failure and potentially supporting live/rolling upgrades of hardware and software without +interrupting network traffic. + +The ONOS kernel and core services, as well as ONOS applications, are written in Java as bundles +that are loaded into the Karaf OSGi container. OSGi is a component system for Java that allows +modules to be installed and run dynamically in a single JVM. + +More information on the internal design of ONOS may be found in +`User's Guide <https://wiki.onosproject.org/display/ONOS/User's+Guide>`_ and +`Architecture+Guide <https://wiki.onosproject.org/display/ONOS/Architecture+Guide>`_ on the +`wiki of the ONOS project <https://wiki.onosproject.org>`_. + +ONOS is integrated to OPNFV using a framework ONOSFW and Neutron plugins.
