OPNFV is an open source project that aims to accelerate NFV innovation by integrating NFV components and creating an automated testing platform. The Open Platform for NFV (OPNFV) released its first platform called "Arno" in June 2014. Arno integrated OpenStack, OpenDaylight and other open source components to provide a carrier-grade NFV development and testing environment. OPNFV continues to improve integration, deploy new releases across its bare metal labs, and collaborate with upstream NFV projects.

10. Arno is ready for you…
• Bootstrapping the platform, the engine is running…
• Arno components are on the move, OPNFV & ODL Lithium demo at
14:00
• Arno is alive, but still needs care.
• Get engaged as a user @ opnfv-users@lists.opnfv.org
• Or as a developer @ opnfv-tech-discuss@lists.opnfv.org
• Where to from Arno, upstream of course…
