Best Software-Defined Networking Solutions of 2024

Digital transformation for collaboration and communications. AudioCodes Software-Defined Voice Network is an open solution that leverages the principles of Software-Defined Networking. It's designed to assist large enterprises in digital transformation. It simplifies the operation of their voice networks and improves call routing efficiency. This is achieved by consolidating communications silos, connectivity using SIP trunk services, and utilization of the corporate IP network for optimal call routing. AudioCodes' session boundary controllers (SBCs), global call routing and policy management tools, and voice network management tools allow SDvN to create a universal network that connects cloud-based and on-premises communications solutions.

Cisco Evolved Programmable Network Manager (EPNM), simplified, converged, multilayer management. Our EPN Manager was designed for network and element management systems. It simplifies and converges the end-to-end management of carrier-grade networks, regardless of their size. Businesses can increase agility and operational efficiency through automated device operations, rapid provisioning, proactive assurance, and other features. Reduce the time it takes to bring network services to market, as well as the time between device introduction and features updates and actual network deployment. The management platform allows you to deliver frequent, domain-specific content asynchronously. Automated provisioning of services allows you to quickly identify and resolve network issues and virtual connections. You will benefit from a shared information model, consistent workflows, and UI for easier deployment. Integrate the entire network of carriers, including multiple domains, with end-to-end management right out the box.

Verge-OS is a unique operating system that abstracts functions such as storage, computing (hypervisor), networking and storage from commodity baremet hardware to create virtual data centres. We virtualize entire data centres, unlike our competitors who virtualize machines. All included. One license. All you need is one pane of glass. Verge-OS, a full-featured Software Defined Networking platform, includes a fully integrated firewall. Verge-OS abstracts the entire underlying hardware from the data center and integrates all these raw resources into its hypervisor. Verge-OS uses RAIN architecture in its virtual storage to make it more shareable, scalable, and distributed. erge-OS replaces your hypervisor, SAN and NAS software licenses. It also eliminates proprietary hardware maintenance agreements.

PICOS is a unique open NOS that allows network operators to have surgical, non-disruptive control over their enterprise applications. It also provides deep and dynamic traffic monitoring and attack mitigation in real-time. PICOS is the best way to implement zero trust networking and software-defined perimeters. Our flagship open network operating software installs on 1G-to 100G-interface open switches made by a wide range of Tier 1 manufacturers. This fully featured license provides the best support for enterprise features. It includes the Debian Linux distribution with an unmodified kernel to maximize DevOps programming capabilities. AmpCon, an Ansible based automation framework, is included in Enterprise Edition. It combines Zero-Touch Provisioning with the Open Network Install Environment to make it easier to install and operate open network switches throughout the enterprise.

With one security and networking tool, you can solve your tooling overload and tooling complexity. Consolidating saves time and reduces the risk of getting swivel-chair fatigue due to context switches. TF is a plugin integration super-star, never implementing anything less than necessary. Here's a sample of what TF can do that other SDN plugins cannot. Networks require that borders be crossed. TF is a specialist in the use of the same language as the data and control planes, so your domain is never an island. Open source allows innovation to flow from many directions and gives you the freedom to create the outcomes you want or to trust vendors. Optional Namespace isolation and per microservice micro-segmentation, with the choice of TF tenants or networks or security rules
