A Hybrid Packet-Circuit Network Needs Control SDN Enables The Solution
§ Hybrid Packet-Circuit Networks • Packet-Circuit Convergence
in the Data Center Network
§ Enabled by SDN • Optical and Packet devices
coexist in infrastructure layer
• Unified control through Control and Application layers
16 © 1999-2013 CALIENT Technologies – All Rights Reserved
§ Scheduled Events • Virtual Machine migra1on (Server Virtualiza1on)
• MapReduce / Hadoop
• Storage applica1on reques1ng data migra1on (Network Storage)
§ Real Time Events
• Network monitoring request for addi1onal bandwidth
― Based on Analy1cs (traffic threshold, packet conges1on, etc)
16
Example Use Cases
17 © 1999-2013 CALIENT Technologies – All Rights Reserved
§ 320 x 320 User Ports -‐ 640 Single Mode Fiber Termina)ons
§ Up to 100 Gbit/s per port and beyond (> 32 Tbit/s)
§ 25ms setup )me, < 60ns latency
§ Ultra low power (45 WaKs) & small size (7 RU, 45 lb)
§ TL1, SNMP, OpenFlow APIs
The Next Generation S320 Photonic Switch
Optimized for Data Centers and Cloud Computing networks
18 © 1999-2013 CALIENT Technologies – All Rights Reserved
§ The Plexxi CALIENT partnership is based on a specific implementa)on of the generic Hybrid DC concept.
• Plexxi Control provides the SDN management and control plane func1ons
• CALIENT’s S320 OCS provides high capacity op1cal “flyways” for funneling large traffic flows.
