Software-defined Networking solutions pave the path to the cloud

By Derek Howard, Worldwide Service Provider Marketing Manager, HP Enterprise Group

 

Derek Howard.jpgThe road to becoming a cloud service provider will run more smoothly if you have a network that?s simple, automated and programmable. To fulfill this aspiration, you need the next generation network to support your cloud services. Today that means a Software-defined Network or SDN?a network that?s built for cloud, one that fully embraces the simplicity and agility that open standards enable. To make the most of your new business opportunities, Software-defined Networking is essential. Without it, you?re left depending primarily on hardware and manual processes to provide the functionality needed to support cloud services. And you know that?s a costly, time-consuming approach that?s ultimately just not sustainable. No SDN = No Cloud.
