Hybrid SDN Networks: A Survey of Existing Approaches (2018, methodology): “To cope with scalability and flexibility requirements, distributed controllers, such as Onix [372], ONOS [139], Orion [373], Disco [374], and ElastiCon [375], have been”
A Survey of Software-Defined Networking: Past, Present, and Future of Programmable Networks (2014, positive): “In more recent work on distributed control, the need for dynamic assignment of switches to controllers is addressed in [42], which proposes an algorithm to increase or decrease the pool of controllers based on controllers’ load estimates.”
