BGP Route Reflector / Black-Hole Solution

The Powers-That-Be are finally on board with migrating from the manually-updated-ACL-on-each-Edge-router solution we are using now to a centralized BGP router reflector or similar for black-holing IPs.

Conceptually, I've found a lot of documentation on the topic and we've sucessfully simulated it's use in our environment. What I'm curious about is, what software do you all run your RR BGP session on? We're trying to avoid a hardware solution. Ideally, this would be license-free, but we can find the budget if necessary.

Similarly, any software or automation recommendations for managing and updating the RR is appreciated as well.
