What is SDN?


Definition of SDN:

“SDN is a family of architectures (not technologies) for operationalising networks with improved time to market, reduced risks, and reduced operating expenses by centralising control into a control plane that programmatically controls and extends all network data path elements and services via open APIs.”


SDN transforms IT by addressing factors that cause higher costs for, slows down deployment of, and result in customer dissatisfaction with applications

SDN requires

an ecosystem to

operationalise

the entire

network


Partner Ecosystem


• SDN is about operationalising the entire network and requires an ecosystem to implement a comprehensive architecture that encompasses stateless L2-4 and stateful L4-7 network services

• Benefits

• Improved time-to-market

• Reduced risk

• Reduced operational expenses
