Orchestration Of Software-Defined Application Delivery Networks using Open-Flow Architecture

Computer networks are complex and difficult to manage. They involve many kinds of equipment, from routers and switches to middle-boxes such as firewalls, network address translators, server load balancers, and intrusion-detection systems. Creating an application delivery network using such complex and distributed networking approach is very difficult and is often error prone. In this paper we discuss an innovative approach to create application delivery network using software defined networking. With the help of centralized control plane software defined networking (SDN) simplifies the task of creating Switches, routers, firewalls and load balancers etc. and helps in orchestrating the application delivery in a very short time and with least amount of resources.
