Scalable and Secure Framework for Cloud-Based IT Infrastructure Using Software-Defined Networking and Distributed Storage

Abstract

Due to its scalable and affordable processing, cloud computing (CC) has become the real trend in enterprise IT service models. The challenge of maintaining and safeguarding hybrid cloud infrastructures has increased as more businesses use them. Software-defined networking (SDN) is being adopted by enterprise networks in order to reduce operational costs and provide flexibility in network management. Both technologies are frequently used in enterprise information technology (IT) services. However, it's uncertain how software-defined networking and CC will affect the security of commercial networks. Advanced computing paradigms like serverless computing, containerization, and edge computing are supported by the smooth administration of compute, storage, and networking resources made possible by SDI's interaction with cloud platforms. The study presents a Scalable and Secure Framework for Cloud-Based IT Infrastructure Using Software-Defined Networking and Distributed Storage (SFCIT-SDNDS). The SFCIT-SDNDS technique involves data collection, and module development processes. SDN will identify any threats in the various domains that make up the network and send the encrypted data to the blockchain. Our SFCIT-SDNDS system can use real-world network data to indicate a wide range of applications, as can our new network paradigm. A set of experiment was performed to analyze the scalability of the SFCIT-SDNDS model. According to our comprehensive experimental examination of performance evaluation, the suggested SFCIT-SDNDS framework outperforms other existing approaches by 97.75%.
