Software-Defined Networking (SDN) brings a transformational

paradigm shift in networking by allowing cloud applications to

request network resources, set up QoS & security policies and

thereby making IaaS and SaaS more agile and efficient. NFV and SDN

allow Network Operators to move away from traditional vendor-

locked networking to vendor-independent networking, offering

greater flexibility and significant reduction in CAPEX and OPEX.
