Re: Software Defined Networks

Personally, the way I look to SDN today, as a use case. Saying just "SDN" is an unfair word. While it simply started as 
someone did not want to buy an expensive router while he can write a script on a server (controller) to program a 
switch to do what he wants, it drafted alot  from this view.

Although the hardware got smarter and with some vendors even cheaper, still it will not replace the flexibility of 
software, quick integration of smart AI controller feedback, flow granularity decisions and in some cases replacement 
of conventional protocols....etc Not as easy as it seems and comes with compromises

Brgds,

LG

Thank you for highlighting!
I totally admit that the language used would be deemed unacceptable
for many community members.  My sincere apologies for that.  I will
learn from this mistake.
