Popis: Abstract Named Data Networking is a novel network architecture for the future internet in which data is named rather than addressed. This enables routers to forward data more efficiently based on its name, outperforming IP‐based routing. Another networking architecture that divides the control plane and the data plane is software‐defined networking (SDN). In an SDN network, the control plane decides on routing while the data plane forwards data packets. This separation increases routing flexibility and scalability. Numerous techniques to improve routing can be achieved with NDN and SDN integration. This paper provides an in‐depth examination of routing approaches in NDN based on SDN, emphasizing design principles, algorithms, and performance measures. We begin by summarizing the NDN architecture and delving into its essential components. We next go into the core routing ideas in NDN and categorize and study several routing solutions based on Software Defined Networks. Finally, we highlight the need for scalable, effective, and secure routing systems that may satisfy the expanding requirements of the contemporary internet. We also suggest open research topics in NDN routing based on SDN. This review provides an extensive overview of current centralized routing approaches in NDN, including their limitations and future possibilities.
