Woodside
Capital Partners, a global, independent investment bank, today
announced that Sean Blakley, managing director of WCP Research, will
speak at two sessions of the SDN
Pre-Conference at ITEXPO East 2013, on January 29 in Miami, Florida.
Blakley will discuss what businesses are doing with SDN
(Software-Defined Networking) and why, what enterprise users of all
sorts can learn from it, and future market forecasts about SDN. SDN is
one of the most important, and potentially disruptive,
developments in networking since the rise of the Internet. To date,
networks and connectivity have come first, and applications have
followed. SDN turns this model on its head, approaching networking from
an apps-first standpoint.
“As enterprises require applications to run wherever is best suited both
technically and economically, next generation data centers must address
the growing need for flexibility and massive scalability. We see SDN as
a key shift in the way these next generation data centers will be
architected in the future,” said Blakley. “We believe SDN and
Virtualization are two key enablers to the next generation data center,
and these will be important focus areas of our research in 2013.”
