Enabling modern IT environments, NEC's ProgrammableFlow® networking suite achieves greater organizational agility. As a pioneer of the first commercially available Software-Defined Networking (SDN) solution using OpenFlow protocol, our technology enables full network virtualization and allows enterprises, data centers and service providers to easily deploy, control, monitor and manage secure multi-tenant network infrastructure. Today’s network professionals are constantly challenged to perform a variety of tasks, which, in many cases, are routine tasks that are error prone. Manual tasks steal time away from more valuable activities. NEC’s SDN solution, ProgrammableFlow Networking Suite, streamlines security, reduces operational costs, and optimizes the ability to manage and control networks. Enables faster, easier deployment and management of Unified Communications (UC) networks. Delivers simplified provisioning and dynamic, on demand, allocation of critical network resources.

MidoNet is an Apache licensed production grade network virtualization software for Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) clouds. MidoNet decouples your IaaS cloud from your network hardware, creating an intelligent software abstraction layer between your end hosts and your physical network. This network abstraction layer allows the cloud operator to move what has traditionally been hardware-based network appliances into a software-based multi-tenant virtual domain. MidoNet brings production-grade distributed overlay networking to OpenStack. Features such as reduced complexity of physical network, high availability (any server, any network service, any time), scalability through hierarchy, reduced protocols, otimized network traffic with minimal overhead, vastly improved fault tolerance.

Converged Cloud Fabric (CCF)™ is an automated fabric built with cloud networking design principles. CCF leverages VPC/VNet constructs on-prem to deliver a cloud Network-as-a-Service operational model. CCF automates networking for multiple private cloud platforms, enabling the network to operate at the speed of VMs and Containers. With built-in analytics and telemetry, CCF provides real-time contextual visibility across the fabric and one-click troubleshooting workflows. With CCF, NetOps, DevOps and CloudOps teams can effectively collaborate, and rapidly on-board applications and tenants. CCF enables mainstream and midsize organizations to leverage network as a strategic pillar of the digital transformation strategy. With CCF's self-service networking and contextual intelligence, NetOps team can focus on innovations such as new services and analytics, instead of time-consuming manual tasks.

Contrail Networking provides dynamic end-to-end networking policy and control for any cloud, any workload, and any deployment, from a single user interface. It translates abstract workflows into specific policies, simplifying the orchestration of virtual overlay connectivity across all environments. You can apply and control end-to-end policies across physical and virtual environments. Contrail Networking’s software-defined networking (SDN) capability, based on the open-source network virtualization project Tungsten Fabric, enables you to securely deploy your workloads in any environment. It offers continuous overlay connectivity to any workload, running on any compute technologies from traditional bare-metal servers, virtual machines, to containers. The unified operations and management tool, Contrail Command, is a simple-to-use interface.
