  6. Challenges in VDC bandwidth guarantee • Timely and efficient VDC allocation and expansion • NP-hard problem • Scalable VDC state maintenance • State: VM to physical server mapping, bandwidth reservation, routing path • The state number can easily reach tens of millions • Practical deployment • Applicable to various topologies (dcell, bcube, fat-tree, vl2) and addressing scheme • Implementable using commodity servers and switches • Failure handling

  7. SecondNet • Logically centralized VDC manager • Efficient and low time-complexity VDC allocation • Failure handling • Put virtualization and bandwidth reservation state into servers • All the state at server hypervisors • Stateless switch-core • Port-switching based source routing • Make Secondnet applicable for all network topologies • Deployable with current commodity switches

  9. Port switching based source routing (PSSR) • Source routing • Pin routing path for bandwidth guarantee • Keep state only at server hypervisors • Port-switching • Given the topology is known, port number based forwarding is possible • Simpler switching functionality • PSSR • Stateless switch-core • Addressing agnostic • Can be implement using MPLS
