Software defined data center (SDDC) is the term which is used to refer to a data control center where all infrastructures
are virtualized and delivered as a
service. Control of the data center at data control center is fully
automated by the use of software, which means hardware configuration is
maintained or controlled through intelligent software systems.
This is truly different than traditional data centers
when compared where in traditional data centers the infrastructure is typically
defined by devices and hardware.

As Software defined data centers provides a solution to support
both new cloud computing services and legacy applications hence are considered by many to be the next step in the advancement of cloud computing and virtualization
An architectural approach to Information
Technology infrastructure
which is responsible to extends virtualization concepts such as
pooling, abstraction, and automation to all of the present data
control center’s resources and services to achieve IT as a service is known as as Software defined data center (SDDC).
In a
software defined data center
- Compute
- Storage
- Networking
- Security
- Availability
are the
services which are aggregated, pooled, and delivered as software and
managed by intelligent policy driven software.Software defined data centers are
often called as the necessary foundational infrastructure for efficient
and scalable cloud computing.

Virtualization is the main process and is central to the
software defined data center. SDDC consists of three major building blocks
given as follows
- Network virtualization
- Server
virtualization
- Storage virtualization
According to
the market analyst forecast global
SDDC market is estimated at $396.1 million in 2013 and expected to reach to
$5.41 billion in 2018. This market forecast represents an estimated CAGR of
68.7% from 2013 to 2018. In the present scenario telecommunication service
providers are the largest user for SDDC solutions which are closely followed by
cloud service providers. In terms of geographical regions North America is
expected to be the largest market, while Asia-Pacific (APAC) is expected to
grow at a faster pace in the coming years .
The most
important factor behind the rise of SDDC is the increasing demand for cost
efficient and flexible data center solutions. An important role in shaping the
future of the Software Defined Data Center (SDDC) market is played by
the break down of vendor lock-ins, resource
pooling and automatic networking configurations
