TeraFlow celebrated the 1st virtual meeting with the Advisory Board on December 17th, 2021, with the aim to present the impact and the main achievements of each one of the Work Packages on the first year of funding. Also, the motivation behind the creation of a novel cloud-native SDN controller was introduced along with the three scenarios where the TeraFlow OS components will be validated.
On this second issue of the TeraFlow Newsletter, you will be able to know more details about the work and progress done on the past six months by each one of the WP's involved in the creation of the first release of the TeraFlow SDN Controller.
Moreover, find interesting news regarding participation in events, deliverables submitted, the first meeting with the Advisory Board, and much more.

This document provides the first release of the proposed use cases, requirements, architecture design, business models and data models for the TeraFlow OS. It is aligned with the features and data models that will be present in TeraFlow OS release 1
This document represents the first deliverable of the TeraFlow project’s business-related activities. After offering the vision of what the Consortium wants to achieve and the motivation behind it, the market context for TeraFlow is analysed and the strengths and weaknesses derived from the market environment and competitors. Identifying the business opportunities is the starting point for the potential exploitation of the results, both individually and jointly in the Consortium.
This deliverable reports the ongoing efforts i) towards the definition of the scenarios for the experimental activities, and ii) to introduce and explain the tools chosen to coordinate the prototype development and integration process. The scenarios defined in this deliverable specify which features of the TeraFlow OS will be most relevant, and which partners’ facilities will be used to set up and test the functions. The set of tools is accompanied by a set of processes and guidelines to be followed during the development process.
This report targets the design and the development of the TeraFlow OS Security and Integration components that are essential for future network security. These components will build upon and also enhance base technologies. For instance, the Cybersecurity component will use advanced machine learning (ML) techniques for analysing network traffic to detect intrusions and malicious network traffic and protect the network against sophisticated attacks to ML components. In order to avoid scalability and latency problems, a hybrid central and edge ML architecture will be designed.
This deliverable leverages MS2.1 and MS3.1 to provide (i) implementation aspects of the core components of the TeraFlow operating system (OS) along with (ii) a preliminary evaluation of these components.
This workshop was organised by Hexa-X, the European 6G Flagship project, together with other 6G projects belonging to the 5G PPP – Smart Connectivity beyond 5G (ICT-52), which had the common challenge to go beyond the 5G capabilities developed under 3G PPPP release 16 while also advancing on the development of Smart Connectivity systems as a platform for a Next-Generation Internet to support highly flexible connectivity infrastructure.
For 2021, NGON & DCI World ran as an Online Event, delivering content online on the virtual platform - Swapcard, giving TeraFlow and other companies/projects more opportunity for exposure and ensuring that there is a seamless platform for everyone to get involved in.
The workshop "TeraFlow: Utilising Optical Network Slicing to Connect Clouds for Autonomic 5G and Beyond Services" was held on November 19th between 13:05 and 13:50 CET.
At NGON DCI 2021, TeraFlow held the workshop “TeraFlow: Utilizing Optical Network Slicing to Connect Clouds for Autonomic 5G and Beyond Services”.
