How Is Computer Networking Evolving

Computer networking is evolving to support digital transformation in organizations through various architectures. Key developments include software-defined networking (SDN) for centralized control, intent-based networking (IBN) for automation and performance analysis, and virtualized networks for tailored security and quality-of-service. Additionally, controller-based and multidomain integrations enhance scalability and communication across separate networks, with Cisco providing a comprehensive portfolio of these modern architectures.

How is computer networking evolving?

Modern-day networks deliver more than connectivity. Organizations are embarking on transforming
themselves digitally. Their networks are critical to this transformation and to their success. The types
of network architectures that are evolving to meet these needs are as follows:

Software-defined (SDN): In response to new requirements in the "digital" age, network •


architecture is becoming more programmable, automated, and open. In software-defined
networks, routing of traffic is controlled centrally through software-based mechanisms. This
helps the network to react quickly to changing conditions.

Intent-based: Building on SDN principles, intent-based networking (IBN) not only introduces •
agility but also sets up a network to achieve desired objectives by automating operations
extensively, analyzing its performance, pinpointing problematic areas, providing all-around
security, and integrating with business processes.

Virtualized: The underlying physical network infrastructure can be partitioned logically, to •


create multiple "overlay" networks. Each of these logical networks can be tuned to meet
specific security, quality-of-service (QoS), and other requirements.

Controller-based: Network controllers are crucial to scaling and securing networks. •


Controllers automate networking functions by translating business intent to device
configurations, and they monitor devices continuously to help ensure performance and
security. Controllers simplify operations and help organizations respond to changing business
requirements.

Multidomain integrations: Larger enterprises may construct separate networks, also called •
networking domains, for their offices, WANs, and data centers. These networks
communicate with one another through their controllers. Such cross-network, or
multidomain, integrations generally involve exchanging relevant operating parameters to
help ensure that desired business outcomes that span network domains are achieved.

Only Cisco offers a complete portfolio of modern network architectures for access, WANs, data
centers, and cloud.
