Embodiments relate to a software-defined networking (SDN) single-source enterprise workload manager. An aspect includes a system for SDN single-source enterprise workload management. A network flow graph of a workload is received at an SDN controller in an enterprise network from a workload compiler of the enterprise network. The network flow graph defines interactions between a plurality of subprograms distributed in the enterprise network based on compile-time information of the workload. The SDN controller analyzes the network flow graph to identify the interactions between the subprograms as prompts. The SDN controller allocates network resources to define a plurality of flows through the enterprise network based on the prompts and characteristics of the enterprise network. Network traffic in the enterprise network is controlled based on the flows.
