A Visual Guide to Understanding Software Defined Networks and Network Function Virtualization

 

The simple, visual, at-a-glance guide to SDN and NFV: Core concepts, business drivers, key technologies, and more!

 

SDN (Software Defined Networks) and NFV (Network Function Virtualization) are today’s hottest areas of networking. Many executives, investors, sales professionals, and marketers need a solid working understanding of these technologies, but most books on the subject are written specifically for network engineers and other technical experts. SDN and NFV Simplified fills that gap, offering highly visual, “at-a-glance” explanations of SDN, NFV, and their underlying virtualizations.

 

Built around an illustrated, story-telling approach, this answers the questions: Why does this technology matter? How does it work? Where is it used? What problems does it solve?

 

Through easy, whiteboard-style infographics, you’ll learn: how virtualization enables SDN and NFV; how datacenters are virtualized through clouds; how networks can also be virtualized; and how to maximize security, visibility, and Quality of Experience in tomorrow’s fully-virtualized environments.

 

Step by step, you’ll discover why SDN and NFV technologies are completely redefining both enterprise and carrier networks, and driving the most dramatic technology migration since IP networking. That’s not all: You’ll learn all you need to help lead this transformation.

 

  • Learn how virtualization establishes the foundation for SDN and NFV
  • Review the benefits of VMs, the role of hypervisors, and the management of virtual resources
  • Discover how cloud technologies enable datacenter virtualization
  • Understand the roles of networking gear in virtualized datacenters
  • See VMWare VMotion and VXLAN at work in the virtualized datacenter
  • Understand multitenancy and the challenges of “communal living”
  • Learn how core network functions and appliances can be virtualized
  • Ensure performance and scalability in virtualized networks
  • Compare modern approaches to network virtualization, including OpenFlow, VMWare Nicera, Cisco Inseieme, and OpenStack
  • Walk through the business case for SDN, NFV, and the Cloud
  • Discover how the Software Defined Network (SDN) solves problems previously left unaddressed
  • Understand SDN controllers–and who’s fighting to control your network
  • Use SDN and NFV to improve integration and say goodbye to “truck rolls”
  • Enforce security, avoid data leakage, and protect assets through encryption
  • Provide for effective monitoring and consistent Quality of Experience (QoE)
  • Learn how SDN and NFV will affect you–and what’s next

《SDN和NFV簡化指南:理解軟體定義網路和網路功能虛擬化的視覺指南》

這本書以簡單、直觀的方式介紹了SDN(軟體定義網路)和NFV(網路功能虛擬化)的核心概念、商業驅動因素、關鍵技術等等。在今天,SDN和NFV是網路領域最熱門的領域。許多高管、投資者、銷售專業人員和營銷人員需要對這些技術有一個扎實的工作理解,但大多數關於這個主題的書籍都是專門為網路工程師和其他技術專家撰寫的。《SDN和NFV簡化指南》填補了這一空白,提供高度視覺化的、一目了然的SDN、NFV及其底層虛擬化的解釋。

本書採用圖解故事的方式,回答了以下問題:這項技術為什麼重要?它是如何工作的?它在哪裡應用?它解決了哪些問題?

通過簡單的白板風格的信息圖,你將學到:虛擬化如何實現SDN和NFV;數據中心如何通過雲端實現虛擬化;網路也可以虛擬化;以及如何在明天的完全虛擬化環境中最大程度地提高安全性、可見性和使用體驗質量。

逐步地,你將發現為什麼SDN和NFV技術正在徹底重新定義企業和運營商網路,並推動自IP網路以來最重大的技術遷移。這還不是全部:你將學到所有需要幫助引領這一轉變的知識。

本書的內容包括:

- 學習虛擬化如何為SDN和NFV奠定基礎
- 檢視虛擬機的好處、超級管理員的角色以及虛擬資源的管理
- 了解雲端技術如何實現數據中心虛擬化
- 理解網路設備在虛擬化數據中心中的角色
- 看到VMWare VMotion和VXLAN在虛擬化數據中心中的應用
- 理解多租戶和“共同生活”的挑戰
- 學習核心網路功能和設備如何虛擬化
- 確保虛擬化網路的性能和可擴展性
- 比較現代網路虛擬化方法,包括OpenFlow、VMWare Nicera、Cisco Inseieme和OpenStack
- 理解SDN、NFV和雲端的商業案例
- 發現軟體定義網路(SDN)如何解決以前未解決的問題
- 了解SDN控制器以及誰在爭奪控制你的網路
- 使用SDN和NFV改善整合,告別“卡車派遣”
- 通過加密確保安全,避免數據洩露,保護資產
- 提供有效的監控和一致的使用體驗質量
- 了解SDN和NFV將如何影響你,以及接下來會發生什麼。

這本書將幫助你深入了解SDN和NFV技術,並為你在這一領域的轉型提供支持。
