SDN - SOFTWARE DEFINED NETWORK
INTELLIGENT NETWORK MANAGEMENT AT THE SERVICE OF YOUR BUSINESS
Software Defined Network technology is an approach to network management that allows the centralized management and control of individual hardware components through software.
IRIDEOS has adopted this approach, which is like cloud computing, because it decouples the physical infrastructure from the applications, to create intelligent, dynamic, efficient and flexible architectures aimed at optimizing the delivery of cloud and network services.
The SDN orchestrator is software that allows us to automatically deliver and control our customers' services, translating requests from the Application Layer into network configurations. The configuration tasks necessary for the provision of services are performed by the SDN orchestrator automatically, guaranteeing a reduction in provisioning times, a reduction in errors and an improvement in the quality of the services we provide.
IRIDEOS SDN ARCHITECTURE
-
APPLICATION LAYER
It includes all those applications necessary to make use of the network and its features.
-
CONTROL LAYER
It’s responsible for configuring the network elements. Here is the computational capacity of the entire network and the SDN orchestrator that allows our specialists to have visibility of the entire infrastructure, thus ensuring efficient and optimized management of traffic flows and network resources. The SDN orchestrator allows us to respond effectively to your business needs because it implements, according to an E2E approach, network configurations in a flexible and dynamic way.
-
INFRASTRUCTURE LAYER
It includes all the elements and equipment that make up the physical underlay of the IRIDEOS network, necessary to forward traffic and implement physical and virtual functions.
