Some thoughts on SDN...

• Optimise individual customer networks within our cloud

• Make network 'application aware'

• Marry storage and compute correctly

• Offer Networking-as-a-Service (NaaS)

The Ecosystem Model

An ecosystem is a community of living organisms (plants, animals and microbes) in conjunction with the nonliving components of their environment (things like air, water and mineral soil), interacting as a system.
