VMware SDN
Modern Software Defined compute, also known as virtualization, is the first step toward the VMware SDN Data Center. Introduced by VMware, x86 server virtualization has become a standard technology used by a vast majority of data centers worldwide. Servers deployed the conventional way operate at less than 15 percent of capacity. Virtualization rewrites the entire equation. CPU and memory are decoupled from physical hardware, creating pools of resources for use wherever needed. Each virtualized application and its operating system are encapsulated in a separate, isolated software container called a virtual machine. Many VMs can be run simultaneously on each server, putting the majority of hardware capacity to productive use. The results have transformed server efficiency by offering superior performance, higher availability, and significant savings. In contrast to VMware SDN in which hardware remains the driving force, VMware network virtualization technology truly decouples your network resources from underlying hardware.
