The market research analysis categorizes the global SDDC market into three major segments based on components. They are:
- Software-defined computing (SDC)
- Software-defined networking (SDN)
- Software-defined storage (SDS)
Software-defined computing (SDC)
SDC is a segment of the SDDC, in which the server units installed in data centers are controlled through software for assigning and managing workloads dynamically and efficiently, based on evolving business needs. Advances in technology such as cloud computing and big data analytics have increased the need for additional computing capacity.
According to Abhishek Sharma, a lead analyst at Technavio for data center research, “SDC facilitates enterprises in allocating resources quickly and efficiently. SDC enables policy-driven resource scheduling and intelligent workload management. In SDDC architecture, SDC is integrated along with SDN and SDS to achieve better management through effective monitoring.”
Software-defined networking (SDN)
SDN is an evolving network architecture in which the network control and forwarding plane are decoupled. They can also be programmed directly. This transfer of control from specific network devices to manageable computing devices simplifies the management of network infrastructure in data centers. SDN provides control to the enterprises and carriers on the complete network through a single logical point, thereby simplifying the network design and operation. Also, this architecture streamlines operational functions of network devices through instructions from SDN controllers.
Software-defined storage (SDS)
SDS involves a form of storage virtualization that separates software services, such as data management, data protection, placement of data, and I/O capabilities, from the underlying storage infrastructure. This helps increase flexibility, scalability, and automation capabilities of enterprise storage infrastructure. SDS also reduces the overall storage costs for enterprises.
SDS is a key component of SDDCs and is gaining popularity among several enterprises worldwide. The technology enhances resource pooling, abstraction, and automated management in the storage infrastructure. It offers support for legacy applications, cloud-based services, and big data analytics.
“The demand for efficient management of enterprise storage has increased worldwide, which, in turn, has resulted in an increased demand for SDS,” says Abhishek.
