The Path: Enterprise-Grade SDN Solutions
• Provide a real “value add” : provide a “solution”, not a “technology”
• Pragmatic architecture: use what works, improve the rest  hybrid models
• Practical adoption: evolutionary deployment path
• Solid foundation: reliability, high availability, manageability, security
• Open ecosystem: standards-enabled solution development & certification
