Partners: Time Is Nigh For Cisco-VMware Software-Defined Networking Tech Integration

With #Cisco Systems talking with #VMware about a deeper and more meaningful software-defined networking (#SDN) relationship, could official integration of their respective technologies be far behind?  

That's a question many partners are pondering now that customers have begun deploying both VMware #NSX and Cisco's Application Centric Infrastructure ( #ACI ) in their data center environments.

Until recently, customers viewed their SDN purchasing decision as an either-or proposition between NSX and ACI, mainly because the former is software-only and the latter also includes Cisco's Nexus 9000 switches and its Application Policy Infrastructure Controller (APIC).
