Data centers can be optimized by updating key network architectures in two ways: through networking technologies or operational efficiency in NetDevOps. In this post, we identify and evaluate technologies that you can apply to your network architecture to optimize your network. We address five updates that you should consider for improving your data center: VXLAN is an overlay��
