ODL Root Parent

ODL Root Parent provides common settings for all the projects participating in simultaneous release. ODL Root Parent Project contains a POM that includes common external dependencies, distribution management, plugin management, repository information, etc that is common to all the projects. This pom has only defaults which other projects will inherit if the defaults are not specified.

Controller

OpenDaylight Controller is a Java-based, the model-driven controller using YANG as its modeling language for various aspects of the system and applications and with its components serves as a base platform for other OpenDaylight applications.

ServiceUtils

ServiceUtils is an infrastructure project for OpenDaylight aimed at providing utilities that will assist in the Operation and Maintenance of different services provided by OpenDaylight. A service is a functionality provided by the ODL controller as seen by the operator. These services can be categorized as Networking services, e.g. L2, L3/VPN, NAT, etc., and Infra services, e.g. Openflow. These services are provided by different ODL projects like Netvirt, Genius, and Openflowplugin and are comprised of a set of java karaf bundles and associated MD-SAL datastores.

YANG Tools

YANG Tools is an infrastructure project aiming to develop necessary tooling and libraries providing support of NETCONF and YANG for Java (JVM-language based) projects and applications, such as Model-Driven SAL for Controller (which uses YANG as its modeling language) and Netconf / OFConfig plugins.

TransportPCE

TransportPCE primary function is to control an optical transport (WDM or OTN) infrastructure using a non-proprietary South Bound Interface.
Currently, the project supports NETCONF devices relying on the  OpenROADM MSA specifications.

FaaS

FaaS project aims to create a common abstraction layer on top of a physical network, so northbound API or services can be easier to be mapped onto the physical network as concrete device configuration.
