'''SDN (Software Defined Networking)''' represents a disruptive change in the way networks are architected, built, and operated. SDN opens up traditionally closed, single-vendor networks and brings competition and innovation to bear on some historically unsolvable networking problems. SDN is a new promising networking paradigm where network control is decoupled from forwarding and is directly programmable. This migration of control, formerly tightly bound in individual network devices, into accessible computing devices enables the underlying infrastructure to be abstracted for applications and network services, which can treat the network as a logical or virtual entity. SDN thus enables to automatically and flexibly manage network resources. |
