SDN is not a new concept at all. Infact since ARPANET days, the notion of centralized control plane had a lot of traction. But with Cold war around, It made more sense to push the control plane intelligence into individual decision points (routers , switches , et . al. ). Considering the possibility of the commies taking down some part of the early Internet, the remaining partitioned network could still survive as the rest of the decision points could converge and act as independent network snippets. -Jay.
