Software Defined Networking (SDN) is developed as an alternative to closed networks in centers for data processing by providing a means to separate the control layer, data layer, switches, and routers. SDN introduces new possibilities for network management and configuration methods. In this article, we identify motivation and various challenges with the current state-of-the-art network configuration of SDN and discuss the compatibility with edge, cloud computing and IoT.
