Gartner认为:“软件定义一切”囊括了在基础设施可编程性标准提升下不断增长的市场势头、由云计算内在自动化驱动的数据中心互通性、DevOps和快速的基础设施提供等。“软件定义一切”还包括各种举措,如OpenStck、OpenFlow、the Open Compute Project和Open Rack,共享相同的愿景。开放性将成为供应商的目标,SDN、SDDC、SDS和SDI技术的供应商都力图成为所在领域的领导,但在恪守开放性和标准方面却可能各有各的打算。 Gartner believes: “Software-defined everything” encompasses the growing market momentum underpinning infrastructure programmability standards, data center interoperability driven by cloud computing’s internal automation, DevOps and rapid infrastructure provisioning. Software Defined Everything also includes initiatives such as OpenStck, OpenFlow, the Open Compute Project and Open Rack that share the same vision. Openness will be the vendor’s goal. Vendors of SDN, SDDC, SDS, and SDI technologies seek to be leaders in their field, but each may have its own plans to adhere to openness and standards.
