What is lighty.io?

Made for SDN development

lighty.io is PANTHEON.tech’s next-generation Software-Defined Networking (SDN) framework, built to simplify and accelerate the adoption of programmable networks. Originally derived from the OpenDaylight platform, lighty.io takes a modular, developer-centric approach to building SDN and network automation solutions.

Designed for cloud-native and microservice-based environments, lighty.io transforms monolithic SDN concepts into lightweight, scalable, and production-ready tools. It enables network operators and developers to build, deploy, and extend SDN applications faster—with significantly reduced complexity and overhead.
