The 2016 survey of what's marketed as SDN included centralized control plane, software-based packet forwarding, whitebox switching, device APIs, and service abstraction layers. |

Regardless of what vendors try to sell as SDN, there are only few viable SDN system architectures, and a small set of usable supporting technologies. Both of these are described in this section. |

Some technologies described in the SDN Toolbox video never became more than an interesting idea. See the Programmable Access to Network Devices in the SDN a Decade after ONF Launch section for more details. |

From the 2022 perspective, the original SDN concept (centralized control plane) failed miserably, but the industry made great progress in all other dimensions. This section contains an analysis of all SDN approaches described in the What is SDN section, their long-term impact, and the progress we made in the last decade. |

The 2014 introduction to OpenFlow is still valid — OpenFlow 1.4 standard has been published in 2014, and no major vendor implemented OpenFlow 1.5. Unfortunately, most of the deployment ideas described in this section fizzled and disappeared. |
