Learn the ins and outs of NSX-T vs. NSX-V

NSX is VMware's software-defined networking platform, and it comes in two distinct flavors: NSX-V for vSphere environments, and NSX-T for non-vSphere environments. In the NSX-T vs. NSX-V debate, you must take the use cases of each into consideration. NSX functions as a software version of a network hypervisor; it automates networking and provides multiple network services, such as IP address management. NSX enables organizations to troubleshoot security, automation and networking in the data center. Both versions of the product give you virtual control over switches, routers, access control and firewalls. VMware built NSX-T and NSX-V on completely different code bases to cater to two different use cases.
