摘要: Defining a software-defined data center is a vision of the future. An SDDC brings together software-defined compute, software-defined network, software-defined storage, software-defined hypervisor, software-defined availability, and software-defined security. It also unifies the control planes of each individual software-defined component. A unified control plane enables rich resource abstractions for purpose-fit orchestration systems and/or programmable infrastructures. This enables dynamic optimization according to business requirements.
