Norwalk, CT - January 11, 2013 - TMC (News - Alert), a leading b-to-b media company helping clients build communities, today announced the launch of a special workshop for businesses and service providers investing in or investigating Software Defined Networking (SDN).

        •  Software-Defined Networking 101
        •  SDN in the Enterprise
