Operationalizing the Network with SDN

White paper by F5 Networks, published on 3/18/2015

The focus of SDN is on transforming the network to support applications and meet the expectations of users and businesses that rely on them. Scaling modern networks is challenging due to the explosive growth of compute, network, and application resources-combined with increased mobility of apps migrating to the cloud and users across multiple devices.

As an approach to operationalizing the network, SDN enables organizations to achieve greater economies of operational scale through the use of APIs to automate and orchestrate the network, as well as the application services that support applications. 

Read this whitepaper to learn how applications are driving new requirements for both businesses and networks that require disruptive, radical change.
