Improving Network Performance in Virtualized Datacenters – A Control Plane Perspective

With the increasing need for Internet-based business and consumer applications, as well as the demand for instantaneous access to huge amounts of data, today’s connected world is generating enormous demands on datacenters. In addition, the ongoing adoption of cloud-computing applications, requiring 24/7 support for thousands of users at differentiated service levels, adds further scalability and security challenges to the datacenter infrastructure. This white paper:

• Outlines the current technologies and trends in datacenter virtualization
• Describes the key challenges faced by datacenter networks caused by virtualization
• Introduces control plane requirements that can address these challenges
• Outlines major control plane solutions to improve network performance in today’s – and tomorrow’s – virtualized datacenters
