Recently, I was looking at what the future of networks would be like. Nowadays, the concept of a controller does have some place and is probably part of the transition to more intelligent networks.
However, despite all the relevant redundancy technologies that you can put in place, there is always concerns about controller failures etc. Looking at what Pluribus Networks is doing, they seem to address some critical areas of the future network design with the following. 1. Clustering - Building smart and open clusters allow easier management and co-ordination of network resources within the data center. 2. Network Hypervisor - The development of the Switch OS as a basic hypervisor creates a lot of opportunities to do many more things with NFV and other applications.
