Software Defined Networking
Automate and orchestrate your network infrastructure with battle-tested open-source tooling.
Workflow Orchestrator (WFO)
The Workflow Orchestrator is an open-source platform for automating and orchestrating networks. It provides workflow and product modeling, standardised forms, and integrations with tools like Netbox and Ansible, giving you full control over your network lifecycle.
Enterprise integration experience
We've delivered multiple WFO integration projects for large corporates and service providers. From initial architecture to production rollout, we know how to embed the Workflow Orchestrator into complex, existing environments.
Product & workflow modeling
Define your network products and services as code. We help you model subscriptions, product types, and automated workflows that map directly to your business processes, reducing manual work and eliminating errors.
Integrations & tooling
Connect the Workflow Orchestrator to your existing stack. Netbox for IPAM/DCIM, Ansible for device configuration via LSO, and custom APIs for your internal systems. We build the glue that makes it all work together.
Infrastructure as Code
Treat your network like software. Version-controlled configurations, repeatable deployments, and automated provisioning, bringing DevOps practices to network engineering.
Training & workshops
Get your team up to speed. We offer hands-on workshops covering WFO architecture, workflow development, and best practices for network automation at scale.
Frequently asked questions
What is the Workflow Orchestrator (WFO)?
The Workflow Orchestrator (WFO) is an open-source platform for automating and orchestrating networks. It provides workflow and product modeling, standardised forms, and integrations with tools like Netbox and Ansible, giving you full control over your network lifecycle.
How does the WFO compare to general workflow engines like Temporal or Airflow?
Temporal and Airflow are general-purpose workflow engines; the Workflow Orchestrator is purpose-built for network and service orchestration, with product and subscription modeling and standardised forms built in. That domain focus means far less custom scaffolding to model your network products as code.
Is the Workflow Orchestrator production-ready, and who uses it?
Yes, it's an established open-source project used by large research and service-provider networks. Virge has delivered multiple WFO integration projects for large corporates and service providers, and contributed the hybrid search shipped in orchestrator-core.
Can you integrate the WFO with our existing network stack?
Yes. We connect it to Netbox for IPAM/DCIM, Ansible for device configuration via LSO, and your internal systems through custom APIs.
