Simplifying Data Center Network Management Leveraging SDN

The traditional networks that have been built within the global enterprises over the years are inflexible, very cumbersome to change, not easily scalable and need highly skilled and experienced network architects and engineers to administer and manage its complexity. External programming or automation is an issue with traditional networking devices due to their usage of vendor dependent proprietary management system, protocols and lack of reliable APIs. The networking industry has been slow to evolve due to the concept of “Black Boxes”; many enterprise customers perceive it as the primary inhibitor to agility and innovation.
