MWC Barcelona 2025 Recap: A Week of Innovation & Open-Source Networking

Another MWC Barcelona has come to an end, and what a week it has been! VyOS Networks was proud to be part of one of the most important global gatherings in the tech industry, where we had the chance to engage with industry leaders, showcase our latest innovations, and discuss the future of secure networking, cloud, and edge computing.

VyOS at MWC: Key Takeaways

This year’s event reaffirmed that open-source networking continues to gain traction as organizations seek greater flexibility, security, and control over their infrastructure. Throughout the week, we had the opportunity to showcase how VyOS is shaping the future of routing, firewalling, and network automation for enterprises, service providers, and cloud-native environments.

Live Demos and Real-World Use Cases

At our booth, we ran live demonstrations to showcase VyOS in action—highlighting its power in edge deployments, secure cloud networking, and automation-driven network operations. Visitors were particularly interested in how VyOS:

✅ Enables full control over networking through an open-source platform
✅ Supports multi-cloud strategies with integrations across major cloud providers
✅ Optimizes edge computing by providing secure, lightweight, and scalable routing solutions
✅ Enhances network automation with APIs, infrastructure-as-code, and seamless orchestration

From telecom operators to data center providers and enterprise IT teams, we had conversations that reinforced the growing demand for software-defined, vendor-agnostic networking solutions.

Industry Trends and Future Outlook

Several key trends stood out in our discussions with industry experts at MWC:

• The shift towards open networking – Companies are moving away from proprietary hardware and embracing software-driven solutions for greater flexibility.
• Security at the forefront – With rising cybersecurity threats, organizations are prioritizing secure-by-design networking architectures.
• Edge computing expansion – More businesses are investing in distributed network architectures to process data closer to the source.
• Cloud interoperability – The need for seamless integration between on-prem, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments continues to grow.

As VyOS continues to evolve, we remain committed to delivering a powerful, scalable, and secure networking solution for businesses that demand reliability and open-source innovation.
