SDN enables customers to realize and control the network they desire for their workload in the cloud. This includes traditional enterprise network functions like Access Control List (ACLs), firewalls, load balancers, Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS)/ Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), Denial of Service (DoS) protection, that customers want to realize in the network for their Virtual Machines (VM) in the cloud. All these need to be delivered on a shared, very high speed but low-complexity physical network based on merchant silicon. And that is where the software comes in - all these can be realized and delivered in software by building a virtual network on top of physical network, using the virtualized host as the scale-out engine for all our policy, allowing the underlying physical network to be cheap and extremely fast. Creating a new, software controlled virtualized network, optimized for the cloud, represents a once-in-ten-years technological shift. The entire industry is realizing the SDN vision and jumping into it.
