| Software-defined Networking (SDN) Market Opportunities and Challenges |
An approach to building computer
networks that separates and abstracts elements of these systems, Software Defined Networking (SDN) allows system administrators to rapidly
provision network connections in mechanized fashion rather than manually
configuring.
In software architecture terms, SDN
requires some method for the Control Plane to communicate with the Data Plane.
One such mechanism is OpenFlow which is a standard interface for controlling
computer networking switches.
This report evaluates SDN, OpenFlow, and
other related tools, procedures and mechanisms. It includes analysis of SDN
versus other approaches, the impacts on existing vendors, and the future market
potential for various approaches.
Target Audience:
- Telecom companies
- Software developers
- Major ICT companies
- IT support companies
- Integration companies
