SDN: Software Defined Networks: An Authoritative Review of Network Programmability Technologies, Thomas D.

Explore the emerging definitions, protocols, and standards for SDN―software-defined, software-driven, programmable networks―with this comprehensive guide. Two senior network engineers show you what’s required for building networks that use software for bi-directional communication between applications and the underlying network infrastructure.

This vendor-agnostic book also presents several SDN use cases, including bandwidth scheduling and manipulation, input traffic and triggered actions, as well as some interesting use cases around big data, data center overlays, and network-function virtualization. Discover how enterprises and service providers alike are pursuing SDN as it continues to evolve.
