Software Defined Networking (SDN) Virginia 2025 is a comprehensive networking initiative that aims to transform Virginia’s technology infrastructure by 2025. SDN is a new approach to network management that allows for greater flexibility, scalability, and security. It is based on the principle of separating the control plane from the data plane, which allows network administrators to manage the network from a centralized location.
The SDN Virginia 2025 initiative is a collaboration between the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT), the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute (VTTI), and several private sector partners. The goal of the initiative is to create a statewide SDN network that will improve traffic flow, reduce congestion, and enhance safety. The network will also be used to support a variety of other applications, such as smart city services and autonomous vehicles.
