Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/modular-adaptative-plugin.

Description:

This blueprint describes a new neutron pluging named MAP (Modular and Adaptive Plugin). This plugin differs from current approach by providing neutron with an abstract network representation using modeling languages (MetaCLI, Yang...). Knowledge on the underlying network allow this plugging to choose a strategy and a set of services to apply. This choice is then realized  by drivers managing a specific configuration protocol (netconf, CLI, Openflow..), allowing  managing  various multi-vendor networks.
