Protecting data and monitoring user behavior used to be relatively simple when everyone was behind the corporate firewall. For example, data within software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications can’t be protected by the corporate virtual private network if users are outside the firewall, so access needs to be governed at the user account level.

I’ve had a few conversations about network virtualization and software-defined networking (SDN) recently (see here and here ) and the amorphous use of the term “software-defined.” Separating the storage control plane from the storage data plane is a much closer storage analogy to SDN, in my opinion.
