Did you replace existing equipment as you rolled this out?

This was a new network that we were building, so we didn't remove any equipment, but certainly, over time, we're in a position to do that.

Will you continue to use your homegrown gear or make the shift as companies come out with OpenFlow tools?

Our position is that, once there are switches out there that deliver the functionality we need with a nice OpenFlow agent, we would be very open to them.

Is there a hell of a lot of difference between a switch and a server these days anyway, beside the interfaces, obviously?
