Kaloom is also the creator of the Software Defined Fabric, an industrialized software for networking white boxes, pieces of commodity hardware that can run a chosen network operating system. The Software Defined Fabric is designed for hyperscale and distributed data centers, and is intended for use by clients in the data center operator, telco, enterprise, cloud, and gaming industries. The Software Defined Fabric allows for integrated routing and switching, while also enabling developers to develop new code and clients to add new services and features in-house. The intention of the Software Defined Fabric is to virtualize data centers through use of low-cost white boxes.
