Overview
Cloud service providers and enterprises alike need flexible, cost-effective tools for building and managing virtual networks. Distributed network virtualization overlays (NVOs) and bare metal networking are two new use cases for software-defined networking (SDN) that deliver agility, simplicity, and cost savings for a more seamless shift to the cloud. Distributed and decentralized NVOs, in conjunction with a common operating system for network hardware, allow network managers to centrally manage both virtualized and non-virtualized workloads. By adding automation and agility while leveraging existing hardware and software, this solution makes data center network virtualization faster, easier, and more affordable. This webinar provides Infonetics' view on the state of the SDN and network virtualization market, a deep-dive into distributed NVOs, and use cases highlighting the advantages of a disaggregated paradigm for network underlays with bare metal switches.
