Keynote: Digital Transformation through Open Software Defined Infrastructure
summary
Global payments network handles 129 billion transactions a year (~US$8.2T) at roughly 65,000 messages per second and is migrating mission‑critical infrastructure from proprietary routers to an open SDN/NFV stack using commodity merchant silicon, spine‑leaf fabrics, a unified SDN controller with open southbound APIs, and orchestration that supports one‑click provisioning. A developer gateway (the Visa Developer Platform, 180+ APIs) and virtualized test environments validate phased migrations with backout plans, SLA checks and packet‑capture, while insisting on multi‑vendor, carrier‑grade interoperability.
