Introduction
Welcome to the open GÉANT project wiki area for orchestration, automation and virtualisation (OAV).
This area will be used for knowledge sharing and exchange between GÉANT, NRENs, and organisations interested in applying OAV principles to their network operations. It is also intended to serve as a platform to discuss strategies, common use cases and ideas related to network and service orchestration, automation and virtualisation in our GÉANT community and beyond.
More material will be added on a continuous basis.
Current focus

During April 2019, an NREN survey was conducted, which drew 31 responses. A summary of the results was presented at the GN4-3 Future Services Strategy Workshop on 9th May 2019 in Amsterdam; see the PDF of the survey summary.
