Ciena Environment for Network Innovation

The Ciena Environment for Network Innovation (CENI) is a research project at Ciena which looks in to future computer communications networks with special focus on increased capacity (bandwidth) and control (SDN, or Software Defined Networks). This project operates an international testing network that connects Ciena’s Ottawa research facility to university based network researchers in Chicago, Baltimore, Amsterdam and San Fransisco. Researchers at these locations combine efforts with Ciena to build new, higher capacity, flexable, programamble networks needed to deal with the ever dramatic increase in Internet enabled devices.
