Software Defined Networking (SDN) transforms how networks are built, designed, and operated. It enables faster service deployment and simplifies configuration by abstracting the network into an API-driven model. At the same time, Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) aims to transform traditional networks characterized by single-box solutions from multiple vendors into the next-generation network architecture.

ACL Digital leverages SDN & NFV as a transformational approach to improve customer experience. NFV and SDN used together can virtualize a large variety of network elements like Evolved Packet Core (EPC), Routers, Security devices (firewalls, IDS/IPS, SSL VPNs), and Customer Premise Equipment (CPE).
