SDN Approach in Development IOT Environments

SDN and IoT are two growing technologies that have been the focus of researchers around the world in recent years. Modern access to the network offered by SDN and the growing number of IoT devices shows that the integration of these two technologies as well as their adaptation to each other can significantly improve the interoperability of the whole environment. IoT security issues can also be bridged by the idea of integrating modern firewall or IDS/IPS solutions through an SDN controller or as an independent entity within an SDN environment. The paper aims to show the work done so far on the implementation of SDN in the IoT environment as well as to provide overview for further development of SDN in the IoT communication service.
