SDN Industry PerspectiveOpenContrail Meetup – August 2015

Scott SneddonSenior Director, SDN and Virtualization - Juniper Networks@ssneddon


SDN Market Progress• SDxCentral 2015 SDN and NFV Market Size and Forcast Report

• “The adoption of software-defined networking (SDN), network function virtualization (NFV), network virtualization (NV), and white box (gray box and brite box) initiatives has dramatically changed the networking landscape over the past few years.”

• “Our updated model predicts the combined revenue of SDN, NFV and other next-generation networking initiatives (SDx Networking) will exceed $105B per annum by 2020.”

Core Controller Capabilities• Rich Southbound Support (OpenFlow, etc.)• Extensible API Support• Programmability• Centralized Monitoring and Visualization• High Performance• Reliability and scalability• Security



Core Use Cases• Network Access Control• Network Virtualization• Virtual Customer Edge• Dynamic Interconnects• Virtual Core and Aggregation• Data Center Optimization



The Future of SDN Controllers• Controllers could essentially become the network operating system• Controllers end up being single function solutions• Controllers are subsumed into a cloud orchestration platform• Controllers are reduced to policy-renderers



Use Cases – Scott’s view

• Virtual Private Cloud• Multi-Cloud (Hybrid)• NFV and Service Chaining• vCPE• Docker/Kubernetes


Where have we seen deployments?

• Cloud Service Provider• Banking and Financials• Enterprise Private Cloud• Service Provider/NFV


A few trends…• We’ve largely moved away from “SDN = OpenFlow”• Data Center Network Virtualization is still the leader• vCPE and “over the top” Branch Office use cases are getting press• SD-WAN is of interest• The Containers/Docker/Kubernetes buzz is real


Barriers to adoption• “Do I really need this?”• SP/NFV projects are slow, but steadily moving• Customers fear lock in

• Vendor solutions, but also Open (but not standardized) API’s• OpenStack expertise is still lacking


Importance of Open Source

• Everybody wants “Open”• Open Standards/Protocols

• IEEE, IETF, ETSI are still important• Open Source projects becoming a new “de-facto” standard

• Open Source• Even if they do not have the capacity to contribute to a project


What do customers want?• Software Defined everything

• It’s not always about SDN• Sometimes a good automation and management strategy is all you need

• An “Uber Controller”• Controller of Controllers

• See above

• Turnkey Solutions…
