8. Cloud Bursting
Cloud computing has increased demand
on “East-West” interfaces
• Google: 4+ times more traffic than North-South
• Inter-cluster interface
• VM Migration, Dataset synch/relocation
• Duration needs to be as short as possible
• High-bandwidth connectivity, short-lived connections

27. 2016 Global Transport SDN/NFV Demo
In Early Planning Stage
OIF-managed, co-op with ONF/others, carrier-hosted
Target testing and readout timeframe - Fall 2016
Proposed use case - congestion-triggered transport
connection set-up
Potential test candidates:
• Standardized OpenFlow Optical extensions
• Based on Technical Spec issued by ONF
• IA work on Transport APIs
• Service Request, Topology, others
• Cooperative efforts by OIF and ONF, e.g., IM
• NFV application

28. Summary
Demonstration shows:
• Cooperation between 17 companies
• 7 Carriers (5 Host, 2 Consulting)
• 9 Vendors
• 1 Research Institution
• Transport SDN is becoming real
• APIs: Service Request, Topology
• Equipment control interfaces
Activities since demonstration:
• Framework for Transport SDN – Now Published!
• OTWG extensions to OpenFlow – Now Published!
• Prototypes -> Standards
• Network APIs

29. Thank You!
