Wont SDN solve all this!?!

Heh, the pain point you're feeling here is it a lower level.  You shouldn't be asking how SDN can fix that - you should be asking your vendor to manage their products better.

hehe. No Im pretty sure I just need to buy some SDN. 3 maybe 4 SDNs will do. Not sure how or who is selling SDN, but everyone tells me its gonna change everything

You still gotta run those 3 or 4 SDNs on quality hardware! You're at the mercy of your lowest common denominator:

1. Crappy SDN = Crappy SDN
2. Great SDN + Crappy physical network = Crappy SDN

It's kind of like, who's more important - the network guy or the facilities guy... because with crappy power and cooling... you get a crappy network.. yadda yadda.
