Overview
Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is a new approach to computer networking that allows for more flexibility and control over network resources. Instead of traditional hardware-based networking, SDN separates the control plane from the data plane, enabling centralized management. This makes it easier to configure, manage, and optimize networks. Understanding SDN is essential for modern IT professionals as it supports automation and innovation in network management.
