N2 - This research paper introduces a state of the art for coupling software-defined networking (SDN) capability in smart learning environment (SLE). Smart Competence LEarning Analytics platform (SCALE) is the learning analytics platform, which has been developed to analyze and measure the learners data (Big data) generated in SLE for understanding the various learners competence measures. The learning analytics involves various processes such as distributing, analyzing, and merging the results across the clusters. It requires a large amount of bandwidth and computation cycles in an on-demand manner to reduce the total computation time and computation cost. Hence, in this research paper, we introduce a SDN-based networking principle with SCALE, which provision the network paths and allocates the bandwidth in an on-demand manner. The experiment results were conducted to analyze the performance and impact of SDN in SCALE platform.
