BRATISLAVA, Slovakia, June 06, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FRINX and SoftBank are collaborating and have created an open-source based operations system for SoftBank's networks. FRINX is providing support for its distribution of OpenDaylight, enabling SoftBank to focus on creating their applications.
FRINX offers a fully supported version of OpenDaylight (FRINX ODL Distribution) that makes it a reliable infrastructure onto which SoftBank creates applications to manage their networks.

SoftBank also uses the FRINX Smart Build Engine - a development and test environment - that allows customers to automate the build process and system tests for OpenDaylight and its applications in minutes, compared to weeks or months with Do-It-Yourself solutions.
