The software defined data center idea extends the benefits of simple virtualization beyond specific server platforms while enabling the creation of pools of resources that are shared and that are available for allocation in a dynamic way. In this solution the principles abstraction, pooling and automation of all resources and services simplify the management process and accelerates the provision of compute, storage and network resources.
The software defined data center solution will include software defined networking that moves the control from individual network device to a specific controller that acts on all devices, virtual and physical. This solution can decouple the control from the data plane so that all storage devices will be managed as a single resource.
Regarding the cloud infrastructure and virtualized infrastructure services can provide intelligence to automate on demand provisioning, placement, configuration and control of all applications.
