Software-Defined Networking (SDN): A networking architecture that uses software to control and manage network infrastructure rather than relying on hardware-based controls. It is used to improve network agility, scalability, and flexibility. Examples include using software-defined networking controllers, virtualizing network functions, and implementing network automation tools.
