Corsa Technology Uses SDN to Traffic-Slice the WAN
Corsa Technology | May 12, 2016
Corsa Technology has been touting its programmable data-plane appliance as a way to implement SDN and OpenFlow. With the introduction of a smaller appliance today, the startup is talking more about a specific use case: virtualization for the metro and WAN networks. Corsa is saying its hardware-based virtualization can slice the network into zones, separating traffic in order to preserve performance or maintain security. It can also be a first step toward automating on-demand services, says Carolyn Raab, Corsa’s vice president of product management.
