Recent Scientific Achievements and Developments in Software Defined Networking: A Survey

Application devices or application programming interfaces (APIs) that are connected with the channel's core embedded system and regulate congestion is known as software-defined networking (SDN). Architecture is the primary distinction among SDN and conventional connectivity. Traditional networking is hardware-based, whereas SDN is software-based. Compared to conventional networks, SDN is far more versatile since the routing protocol is software-based. Without adding extra equipment, it enables managers to handle the connection, alter customization options, supply resources, and boost internet bandwidth from a single user interface. There are a lot of developments in SDN which have enabled networking managers to get more freedom in selecting networking hardware, Adaptable network architecture and robust protection of the network. These new trends are reviewed in this article. We are hopeful that this chapter provides future insights in the research of SDN.
