A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF TRADITIONAL NETWORKS WITH SOFTWARE DEFINED NETWORKS

Abstract

Computer Networks has a great influence on changing the lifestyle of human beings time to time due to the evolution of technologies. This fact is well known that every day there are lot of innovations and upgradation of the existing technologies. When the network users rapidly change the demand of the network resources then Software-Defined Networks (SDN) is quickly satisfy their needs as so as possible. Thus, we can say that network innovations provide a position to the SDN as the forthcoming of networking. The Software-Defined Networks provide a novel paradigm architecture to achieve new innovation in the networking field by decoupled the control plane from the data plane. The goal of any software defined network is to control the network to enable the service providers and business organisation to efficiently respond for changing business scenarios. The Software-Defined Networks provide the facility of programmability, adjustable and dynamically reconfiguration of the networking devices. Thus, SDN offer the flexibility, centralized view control, decrease the complexity as well as decrease in the cost of the network systems.
