Software-defined Network Services for the Enterprise

Enterprises are facing new challenges and IT is experiencing pressure like never before. Storage and compute products have become more agile, with the ability to deliver rapid provisioning, elasticity, multi-tenancy at scale and programmability - to meet business demands, but the network has lagged.

There is growing pressure to respond more quickly to user and customer demand, adapt to changing requirements, deliver services faster, and do more with less. All too often the network is seen as the bottleneck because network administrators just don't have the tools to meet these demands. It is just one of the primary reasons why the industry is abuzz with talk of network virtualization and Software-Defined Networking (SDN). Enterprise IT must rethink how they architect their networks for a new, more agile world.
