Realising the power of SDN with HP Virtual Application Networks
Many enterprises are unable to create business innovation because of aging networking environments. Network design and architectures have remained largely unchanged for more than a decade. While applications and systems have evolved to meet the demands of a world where real time rules, the underlying network infrastructure has not kept pace. Software-defined networks (SDN) redefines the way we think about the network and removes the barriers to innovation by giving cloud providers and enterprises complete programmatic control of a dynamic, abstracted view of the network. This white paper gives an overview of software-defined networking and how HP is leveraging SDN to deliver the Virtual Application Networks strategy.
