Method and apparatus for managing connection path failure between data centers for cloud computing

摘要

A first cloud computing data center and a second cloud computing data center are connected through a provider backbone bridge network (PBBN), and a plurality of working connection paths and protection connection paths are formed between end points between the first cloud computing data center and the second cloud computing data center and between end points within a cloud computing data center through the PBBN. When a failure occurs in the working connection path, the working connection path is switched to a corresponding protection connection path.
