Existing in the dark shadow of the most widely adopted Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and foundationally powerful Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), the third service model is often misunderstood and widely ignored. Through this strategy, the company was relieved of most of the care and feeding of its data warehouse.

Is there a difference between network virtualization and Software-Defined Networking (SDN)? I encourage you to read Keith’s full blog post, but I think the key point he makes is right here: How is this different from Software Defined Networking or SDN? These are all software—does that make them SDN? Are they now SDN?
