SDN (Software-Defined Networking)
SDN is a network architecture that separates the control plane from the data plane to make networks more flexible and programmable.
NFV (Network Functions Virtualization)
NFV is a technology that virtualizes network functions (e.g., firewalls, load balancers, routers) and runs them on standard hardware instead of dedicated appliances.
Both SDN and NFV are often used together to create modern, agile, and cost-effective network infrastructures.
