Abstract

This chapter discusses the evolution of the cloud computing paradigm and its applicability in various sections of the computing and networking/telecommunications industry, such as the cloud networking, the cloud offloading, and the network function virtualization. The new heterogeneous virtualized ecosystem that is formulated creates new needs and challenges for management and administration at the network part. For this purpose, the approach of Software-Defined Networking is discussed and its future perspectives are further analyzed.
