OpenNaaS Based Management Solution for Inter-data Centers Connectivity

摘要

Recently, cloud-alike end-to-end services development has evolved towards new service paradigms in which network service provisioning management among Data Centers represent a key enabler. In this paper, we address the issue of network service provisioning management among Data Centers. We propose a software based management solution leveraging virtualization technologies, applied on top of network and Data Center infrastructures. Our solution offers a Network as a Service (NaaS) based service which relies on two main open source software components: OpenNaaS and OpenStack. We present the design in an already-working test bed that demonstrates the utility of the management mechanism.
