Software-Defined Edge (SDE)

VMware defines the software-defined edge as distributed digital infrastructure for running workloads across many locations, close to endpoints that are producing or consuming data. It extends to where the users and devices are – in the office, on the road, in a cell site, or on the factory floor.

VMware addresses all three layers of the software-defined edge: the top edge compute layer which hosts the applications and workloads; the intelligent overlay where SD-WAN and security services run; and the underlay network layer, which runs the software for network connectivity across fixed and 5G networks to provide orchestration and network programmability.

SDE Products Include:

• SD-WAN
• Edge Compute Stack (ECS)
• Edge Network Intelligence

Application Networking and Security (ANS)
