Overview
What this challenge is about.
Deploy SDN-Based Network Slicing for a Telco Operator. Advanced challenge in code. Writing production code that solves real engineering problems, earn a bloc...
The Brief
What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.
Design and prototype SDN-based network slicing that enforces 3 distinct customer SLAs under contention on an ONOS-controlled transport network.
This is not a coding exercise. It is the work a software engineer does between a Jira ticket and a merged PR. That distinction matters to every hiring manager who has seen candidates solve LeetCode problems and none who have shipped production code under real constraints.
When you finish, you will have something most graduates do not: a real-world deliverable, verified by Ewance, that you can show to a hiring manager and say "I did this. Here is the proof."
Earning criteria — what you'll demonstrate
- Implement an SDN application against a real controller's northbound API
- Translate customer SLAs into concrete flow rules + meter configurations
- Validate slice isolation under contention with reproducible experiments
- Communicate slicing trade-offs to a network-engineering audience
