Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We completed full migration from traditional networks to SDNs about three years ago making it necessary to have a universal network management software. We ended up going for IBM Networking Services for Software Defined Networks because we had been using IBM cloud suite already. We use it as our primary SDN features controller. It provides an outstanding view, intelligence and control of our networks and our clients'.

Pros and Cons

Effective load balancing of SDNs.
Provides a centralized approach to managing hybrid network topology.
Has an effective controller redundancy.

Low performance while managing overlay Model SDN.
The SDN controller is always vulnerable to attacks, but its only natural considering it is a potential single point of failure. We have to pay more for a SOAR to improve security.

Likelihood to Recommend

As service providers in Information technology, IBM Networking Services for Software Defined Networks has been of priceless value in management of virtual networks. It is crucial to improve our flexibility in administration of networks regardless of the usage bandwidth whether around the company or on our clients' networks. If you are looking to improve agility and configuration of your networks, then IBM would be the best SDN for that.
