In this archive of a livecast from the Intel Developer Forum, Scott Lowe (@scott_lowe), an industry blogger and engineering architect at VMware, stops by to talk about recent developments in the virtualization and networking industry. He gives a great overview of software-defined networking (SDN) and network functions virtualization (NFV), why the industry should care, and where we are on the adoption curve. He also discusses a few emerging/popular technologies like network hardware and OS disaggregation, containers and rackscale architecture.
