    By JEREMY CLUTE, Vertiv -- Software-defined networking (SDN) has the capability to fundamentally change our approach to today’s emerging next-generation networks. The first step is automating manual processes to more effectively collect and analyze data from devices across the network - including critical infrastructure systems - and scaling accordingly to meet demand. Ultimately, that’s the key to SDN.
