NETWORK VIRTUALIZATION class assignment-19BCS092
Virtualization has brought a revolution in the world of information technology where no organization can say they haven’t adapted virtualized in theirs. We have learnt about virtual machines, hypervisors, bare metal till now. But will you believe if I say that you can even virtualize routers, switches, load balancers too? You have to. Let’s learn about network virtualization and how it has really changed the game in the recent years. Network Virtualization (NV) refers to abstracting network resources that were traditionally delivered in hardware to software. NV can combine multiple physical networks to one virtual, software-based network, or it can divide one physical network into separate, independent virtual networks. Network virtualization software allows network administrators to move virtual machines across different domains without reconfiguring the network. The software creates a network overlay that can run separate virtual network layers on top of the same physical...
