The Internet has modified how we interact with the world, disrupting our leisure, work model, and economy. Nonetheless, it presents an ossified architecture and infrastructure that may burden future applications. These limitations have led to the development of future Internet architectures (FIAs), for example, NovaGenesis (NG). Considering recent trend topics such as next-generation networks, software-defined networking, service virtualization, and 5G network slicing, the coexistence of disjointed architectures in a multi-architectural network is the key to supporting applications with diverse requirements. In this article, we present NG data and control planes for a programming protocol-independent packet processor (P4)-based future Internet exchange point (FIXP). This proposal advances the state of the art by delivering a native and efficient NG controller that manages a multi-architecture exchange point on the fly. In this article, the NG controller prototype orchestrates a simulated autonomous system with FIXP to connect NG hosts (and its content distribution application) dynamically. The obtained results validate the solution.
