SDN (Software-Defined Networking) is an approach to managing and controlling network resources through software rather than hardware. It allows for more flexible and efficient network management by separating network control from the physical hardware.
Emerging trends and innovations in network protocols include the adoption of IPv6, the rise of software-defined networking (SDN), the implementation of secure protocols like TLS 1.3, and the developments in IoT protocols. These advancements aim to enhance network efficiency, security, and scalability.
The latest trends and innovations in network design and optimization include software-defined networking (SDN), intent-based networking, network automation, 5G technology, edge computing, and artificial intelligence (AI) for network management. These advancements are revolutionizing how networks are designed, deployed, and maintained to improve efficiency, security, and scalability.
