The document discusses Neutron and SDN (Software Defined Networking) as solutions to problems with managing complex and dynamic data center networks. Neutron is OpenStack's networking component, which uses SDN approaches like OpenFlow to provide logical network abstractions and flexible virtual network configuration. SDN allows network policies to be programmed centrally and automated, improving network provisioning, management, and response to failures or changes. When combined with Neutron and an SDN controller like OpenDaylight, this enables on-demand, software-defined network services for OpenStack clouds.
