"SDN holds the promise of creating more flexible, automated and programmable networks by separating network functions from the underlying physical hardware and housing them in software. It also can help drive down networking costs by eliminating the need for more expensive switches and routers. As more business moves to the cloud and virtualization spreads through servers and storage products, networking—with its complex hardware and manual operations—has been seen as the bottleneck in creating highly automated, dynamic and scalable data center infrastructures. SDN and network-function virtualization (NFV) are designed to bring networking to the same level as servers and storage."
"The Netsocket Virtual Network delivers:
Flexibility of configuration and management, enabling the adoption of automated orchestration and next generation management user interfaces and APIs; Seamless legacy network interoperability, achieved through intrinsic routing capability in the controller, allowing an ‘at-your-pace’ network migration path; Commoditization of switching functions, eliminating the need for any network hardware other than commodity layer 2 switches and off-the-shelf x86 servers; and Automated networking through NVN applications that are network configuration and operational state ‘aware,’ and capable of adaptively monitoring and controlling underlying network services.
The NVN suite is completely software-based, targeting commodity x86 virtual server platforms. Netsocket’s vision enables enterprises to cap their purchases of expensive and complicated proprietary routers and layer 3 switches and begin to migrate towards an agile software-based network infrastructure that relies only on commodity servers and inexpensive layer 2 switches. Although capital expenditure and operating expenditure cost savings are substantial, what’s more significant is that the NVN solution provides considerable new agility to meet the needs of the cloud and virtual datacenter through advanced automation and optimization, as well as the ability to offer new responsive services based on the capability to create networks in just minutes."
