More Information
Summary:An information handling system is provided. The information handling system includes a network infrastructure, the network infrastructure comprising a plurality of network switches in communication with a network controller and a first network server with a network orchestrator running thereon and generating network infrastructure requirements. The information handling system further includes a second network server that has a connection manager running thereon. The connection manager is configured to receive the network infrastructure requirements from the network orchestrator and to convert the specified network infrastructure requirements to instructions suited to the network controller. An associated method for facilitating communication between one or more network orchestrators and network infrastructure is also provided. The information handling system and associated method decouple the network orchestrator from the management of the network infrastructure.
