WE NEED A NEW APPROACH: THE MARRIAGE OF IT AND IP

ABSTRACTION

Re-thinking How applications interact with the network

To:

IT-friendly design of network services

Simple IT language for defining the network

that my application needs

Re-thinking How network services are activated

From:

Configuration-driven

Manager-of-Managers approach with layers of operational complexity

From:

“Lost in Translation…”

Applications forced to deal with network

implementation details

To:

Policy-based Auto-instantiation

Network services

created immediately with enterprise and network

policies

AUTOMATION
