| Summary |
" ... presents and covers a well-defined cycle, from definition and implementation to development and deployment of SDNs. ... The authors have used an easy-to-read narrative style, [offering] updated references for further reading. Challenges and issues arising in the design and deployment of SDN are also discussed."--Fatos Xhafa, Technical University of Catalonia, Barcelona, Spain"This [book's] main strengths are addressing a revolutionary subject in networking, handling a principal change in the network infrastructure, emphasizing the need of open standards, evaluating strategies and solutions from leading suppliers, and preparing enterprises for more efficient ways of networking. ... The approach is good, and the selection of topics is good as well. ... This book will help enterprise CIOs and CTOs redesign their networks. Furthermore, it will help them sit down to serious talks with suppliers. This book also will help graduate and Ph. D students get the basics for future network infrastructure design, help suppliers select the right standards and architectures for their future switch and router products, and help solution providers select and implement the right standards and architectures combined with the best of suites of products."-Kornel Terplan, Terplan Consulting LLC, New York, USA |

"Software defined networking (SDN) provides support for geographically distributed users, without having unused resources idle. This permits dynamic scaling of network services for peak times and supports service contraction during adverse operating conditions. This book presents a thoughtful discussion of the factors which led to the emergence of SDN, why SDN is vital to the growth and deployment of cloud-based computing systems, and what the impact of the SDN revolution will be. By tracing the data plane abstractions of layers into the SDN abstraction model, readers understand the importance of the SDN revolution"-- Provided by publisher |
