Introduction to OVSDB

from OVS Orbit

This is the second in a series of Open vSwitch tech talks that we are starting to run internally at VMware every week or two. This episode is particularly about OVSDB, the Open vSwitch Database. It starts out with material explaining why OVSDB exists at all, given that there is so much other work in databases and in network configuration. Then it moves on to what OVSDB is and its basic features, including the features that its schemas support. It also discusses the basics of the OVSDB network protocol. It concludes with several minutes of questions. OVS Orbit is produced by Ben Pfaff. The intro music in this episode is Drive, featuring cdk and DarrylJ, copyright 2013, 2016 by Alex.
