SDN in Telecommunications

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is a technology that separates the control of a network from its physical hardware. Instead of individual devices making independent decisions, a centralized controller manages the entire network’s data flow via software. This allows for more flexible, efficient, and easily adjustable networks, as administrators can quickly change configurations and optimize performance without manually tinkering with each device. In telecommunications, SDN enables dynamic management of large-scale networks, improving scalability, security, and the ability to adapt to changing user demands or configurations.
