Virtuosity : Performing Virtual Network Resource Management

چکیده
1 Daniel Villela is a CNPq-Brazil Scholar 2 John Vicente is a Visiting Researcher at Columbia University Abstract The creation, deployment and management of network architecture is manual, time consuming and costly. To the network architect the creation process is ad-hoc in nature, based on hand crafting small-scale network prototypes that evolve toward wide scale deployment. We envision a different paradigm where ‘spawning networks’ are capable of profiling, spawning, architecting and managing distinct virtual network architecture on-the-fly. This paper provides an overview of a virtual network kernel and its life cycle of spawning virtual networks, and focuses particularly on the role of resource management of virtual networks. We describe, virtuosity, a virtual network resource management system that minimizes the complexity of handling multiple spawned virtual networks that operate over multiple timescales. Virtuosity is driven by per-virtual network policy exerting control and management over multiple spawned virtual networks (characterized by a set of resources) and their spawned architecture (defined as a set of interacting controllers objects) by dynamically influencing the behavior of resource controllers over slow timescales. Virtuosity provides a foundation for the management of virtual networks and forms an integral part of the virtual network kernel being developed within the Genesis Project at Columbia University.

The creation, deployment and management of network architecture is manual, ad hoc and slow to evolve to meet new service requirements resulting in costly and inflexible deployment cycles. In the Genesis Project ([email protected]), Columbia University, we envision a different paradigm where new network architectures are dynamically created and deployed in an automated fashion based on ...
متن کاملDiProNN Resource Management System
The Distributed Programmable Network Node (DiProNN) we proposed earlier allows user-controlled processing of passing user data in a network. The node takes advantages of virtualization principles, which make DiProNN being able to accept not only standalone active programs (the programs performing the stream processing), but the whole virtual machines with their own operating systems, and their ...
