“ Coming back to our data center example: It is possible to build upon a network running a fully distributed routing protocol such as OSPF. On top this OSPF network, we could leverage a logically centralized routing application which reviews the link state database as computed by OSPF, and then computes and injects higher priority (least dollar cost or lowest delay) routes. In such a hybrid control case we have the best of both worlds. Our centralized routing application can fail (or be slow to converge) yet traditional OSPF routes will still be determined in a distributed manner ensuring that the traffic flows. „
