Virtualization In Modern Media Networks and Systems

Description

A major discussion topic across the industry today is centered around migration from Serial Digital Infrastructure to packet based switching, routing, signal distribution and media control. The process is likely to evolve over time as new equipment, software and related interfaces become available. Next generation core switching, routing and signal distribution promise great potential to "change the way we do business". Communications and data center service providers having previously successfully adopted and deployed Virtualization techniques in servers and storage, are now turned their attention to virtualizing and updating their networks with a vengeance. Thus the buzz fueling Cloud, SDN and NFV.
