Challenges faced here led FanDuel to re-architect to the next-generation architecture. In 2010, FanDuel migrated to a cloud provider (not AWS); issues experienced there forced FanDuel to migrate to AWS in 2011.

According to Martin, the term SDN originally referred to a change in the network architecture to include a) decoupling the distribution model of the control plane from the data plane; and b) generalized rather than fixed function forwarding hardware. What about virtualized load balancers? What about NX-OS, JUNOS, or EOS?

However, taking advantage of the large number of potential 5G use cases can introduce complexities that are hard to manage unless CSPs are using business support systems (BSS) that are truly cloud-native. Several CSPs have already started moving their BSS/OSS workloads to the cloud. Why lift-and-shift doesn't work.

DDIO allows PCIe devices to DMA information directly to cache–instead of main memory–where it can then be fetched by a processor core. It is, however, very well-suited to workloads that need predictable performance and that work with lots of small packets (firewalls, load balancers, other network devices).

Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is an architecture that consolidates connectivity and security into a single cloud platform. In short, SASE involves fusing connectivity and security into a singular cloud-based framework. This model guarantees secure connections to necessary applications, irrespective of location or device.
