Show 203 - SDN Policy + Congress with Martin Casado & Tim Hinrichs

This week, the Packet Pushers chat with Martin Casado & Tim Hinrichs about policy. What's policy, you ask? In the context of the software defined data center, policy is the big idea that what an IT system needs to do can be expressed in an abstract policy language. The need for abstraction exists because human beings aren't easily able to tell machines explicitly what they need to do build a system that conforms to a given policy.
