SDN/NFV Open Networking
Agility by Software-Defined Network
SDN is an architectural approach to separates data plane and control plane to work out new network topology. Which means that you could enable a network device to be process intelligently packet-forwarding engine and centrally controlled. NFV aims to transform that way of network operators architect by network virtualization technology.
The advantages of SDN/NFV is not limited to:
High Availability
- DVirtual machine and network functions management
- OpLive migration, Host evacuation
Trust & Security
- Trusted Compute Pools, including bare metal
- Enabling Router/Firewall/IPS/DPS
- Chaining security services to virtual and physical network equipment
Higher Performance
- Accelerated packet processing (e.g. Open vSwitch with DPDK)
- Intelligent hardware based for virtualization efficiency (CPU features, PCI Express* Accelerators, SR-IOV etc.)
Cost Reduction & Efficiency
- Reduced power consumption and space through consolidating.
- Lower OPEX and CAPEX to avoid from ASIC or proprietary design
Deployability & Stability
- Improved installation & upgradability
- Disaster recovery capabilities through agile network
