In modern optical networking, managing complexity across multiple administrative and technological boundaries is critical. The ALLEGRO project takes a forward-looking approach by addressing multi-domain control — where each domain represents a set of network elements governed by a single SDN controller.
This concept complements multi-segment orchestration (across access, aggregation, metro), but focuses specifically on the transparent interconnection of domains at the optical layer.
🚀 Key Highlights:
- Support for multi-OLS (Optical Line System) scenarios enabling “spectrum services” and optical network slicing.
- Enabling end-to-end optical service delivery across disjoint domains without compromising transparency or control fidelity.
- Driving innovations in transparent domain interconnection — essential for scalable, vendor-agnostic optical infrastructure.
ALLEGRO’s work in this space pushes the boundaries of what’s possible in programmable, multi-domain optical transport, laying the foundation for dynamic and secure next-gen networks.
