ESnet’s Place in U. S. and International Science • ESnet, Internet2/Abilene, and National Lambda Rail (NLR) provide most of the nation’s transit networking for basic science • Abilene provides national transit networking for most of the US universities by interconnecting the regional networks (mostly via the GigaPoPs) • ESnet provides national transit networking and ISP service for the DOE Labs • NLR provides various science-specific and network R&D circuits • GÉANT plays a role in Europe similar to Abilene and ESnet in the US – it interconnects the European National Research and Education Networks (NRENs), to which the European R&E sites connect • A GÉANT operated, NSF funded like currently carries all non-LHC ESnet traffic to Europe, and this is a significant fraction of all ESnet traffic

Strategy for Conduct of Business for the Last Few Years • Increasing Openness • Making network data available to the community and the Internet • Outage Calendar and outage reports • web-based GUI for traffic measurements (netinfo.es.net) • Flow stats • Increasing Instrumentation • Performance testers (various levels of access to test circuits) • OWAMP servers (one-way testers - equisitally sensitive. Note: The OWAMP system is pretty much down. It is migrating to perfSONAR and new, more relevant, R&E sites will be selected for continuous monitoring • Establish the goal of “network performance between ESnet sites and Internet2 sites served by Abilene is equivalent to network performance across one of the networks or the other”
Strategy for Conduct of Business for the Last Few Years • Increasing involvement with national and international collaborations and research activities • perfSONAR - standards based monitoring platform • OSCARS - community developed (ESnet leadership) virtual circuit management • Increasing partnership with the R&E community • Joint ESnet/I2/Abileene meetings at Joint Techs • LHC network operations working group participation • DICE meetings • Joint Techs meetings participation • attendance, talks, & program committee • All leading up to partnership with Internet2 for building ESnet4
A Changing Science Environment is the Key Driver of the Next Generation ESnet • Large-scale collaborative science – big facilities, massive data, thousands of collaborators – is now a significant aspect of the Office of Science (“SC”) program • SC science community is almost equally split between Labs and universities • SC facilities have users worldwide • Very large international (non-US) facilities (e.g. LHC and ITER) and international collaborators are now a key element of SC science • Distributed systems for data analysis, simulations, instrument operation, etc., are essential and are now common (in fact dominate data analysis that now generates 50% of all ESnet traffic)
Planning the Future Network - ESnet4 There are many stakeholders for ESnet • SC programs • Advanced Scientific Computing Research • Basic Energy Sciences • Biological and Environmental Research • Fusion Energy Sciences • High Energy Physics • Nuclear Physics • Office of Nuclear Energy • Major scientific facilities • At DOE sites: large experiments, supercomputer centers, etc. • Not at DOE sites: LHC, ITER • SC supported scientists not at the Labs (mostly at US R&E institutions) • Other collaborating institutions (mostly US, European, and AP R&E) • Other R&E networking organizations that support major collaborators • Mostly US, European, and Asia Pacific networks • Lab operations and general population • Lab networking organizations These accountfor 85% of allESnet traffic
Planning the Future Network - ESnet4 • Requirements of the ESnet stakeholders are primarily determined by 1) Data characteristics of instruments and facilities that will be connected to ESnet • What data will be generated by instruments coming on-line over the next 5-10 years? • How and where will it be analyzed and used? 2) Examining the future process of science • How will the processing of doing science change over 5-10 years? • How do these changes drive demand for new network services? 3) Studying the evolution of ESnet traffic patterns • What are the trends based on the use of the network in the past 2-5 years? • How must the network change to accommodate the future traffic patterns implied by the trends?

(2) Requirements from Examiningthe Future Process of Science • In a major workshop [1], and in subsequent updates [2], requirements were generated by asking the science community how their process of doing science will / must change over the next 5 and next 10 years in order to accomplish their scientific goals • Computer science and networking experts then assisted the science community in • analyzing the future environments • deriving middleware and networking requirements needed to enable these environments • These were complied as case studies that provide specific 5 & 10 year network requirements for bandwidth, footprint, and new services
Science Network Requirements Aggregation Summary Immediate Requirements and Drivers
3) These Trends are Seen in Observed Evolution of Historical ESnet Traffic Patterns top 100 sites to siteworkflows Terabytes / month • ESnet Monthly Accepted Traffic, January, 2000 – June, 2006 • ESnet is currently transporting more than1 petabyte (1000 terabytes) per month • More than 50% of the traffic is now generated by the top 100 sites — large-scale science dominates all ESnet traffic
ESnet Traffic has Increased by10X Every 47 Months, on Average, Since 1990 Apr., 2006 1 PBy/mo. Nov., 2001 100 TBy/mo. 53 months Jul., 1998 10 TBy/mo. 40 months Oct., 1993 1 TBy/mo. 57 months Terabytes / month Aug., 1990 100 MBy/mo. 38 months Log Plot of ESnet Monthly Accepted Traffic, January, 1990 – June, 2006
Requirements from Network Utilization Observation • In 4 years, we can expect a 10x increase in traffic over current levels without the addition of production LHC traffic • Nominal average load on busiest backbone links is ~1.5 Gbps today • In 4 years that figure will be ~15 Gbps based on current trends • Measurements of this type are science-agnostic • It doesn’t matter who the users are, the traffic load is increasing exponentially • Predictions based on this sort of forward projection tend to be conservative estimates of future requirements because they cannot predict new uses • Bandwidth trends drive requirement for a new network architecture • New architecture/approach must be scalable in a cost-effective way
Large-Scale Flow Trends, June 2006Subtitle: “Onslaught of the LHC”) Traffic Volume of the Top 30 AS-AS Flows, June 2006(AS-AS = mostly Lab to R&E site, a few Lab to R&E network, a few “other”) Terabytes FNAL -> CERN traffic is comparable to BNL -> CERNbut on layer 2 flows that are not yet monitored for traffic – soon)
Traffic Patterns are Changing Dramatically total traffic,TBy total traffic, TBy • While the total traffic is increasing exponentially • Peak flow – that is system-to-system – bandwidth is decreasing • The number of large flows is increasing 1/05 6/06 2 TB/month 2 TB/month 7/05 2 TB/month 1/06 2 TB/month
The Onslaught of Grids Question: Why is peak flow bandwidth decreasing while total traffic is increasing? Answer: Most large data transfers are now done by parallel / Grid data movers • In June, 2006 72% of the hosts generating the top 1000 flows were involved in parallel data movers (Grid applications) • This is the most significant traffic pattern change in the history of ESnet • This has implications for the network architecture that favor path multiplicity and route diversity plateaus indicate the emergence of parallel transfer systems (a lot of systems transferring the same amount of data at the same time)

What is the High-Level View of ESnet Traffic Patterns? ESnet Inter-Sector Traffic Summary, Mar. 2006 7% Commercial 48% 5% ESnet Inter-Labtraffic ~10% 12% R&E (mostlyuniversities) DOE sites 3% Peering Points 58% 23% International(almost entirelyR&E sites) 43% Traffic coming into ESnet = Green Traffic leaving ESnet = Blue Traffic between ESnet sites % = of total ingress or egress traffic • Traffic notes • more than 90% of all traffic Office of Science • less that 10% is inter-Lab
Requirements from Traffic Flow Observations • Most of ESnet science traffic has a source or sink outside of ESnet • Drives requirement for high-bandwidth peering • Reliability and bandwidth requirements demand that peering be redundant • Multiple 10 Gbps peerings today, must be able to add more bandwidth flexibly and cost-effectively • Bandwidth and service guarantees must traverse R&E peerings • Collaboration with other R&E networks on a common framework is critical • Seamless fabric • Large-scale science is now the dominant user of the network • Satisfying the demands of large-scale science traffic into the future will require a purpose-built, scalable architecture • Traffic patterns are different than commodity Internet
Changing Science Environment New Demands on Network Requirements Summary • Increased capacity • Needed to accommodate a large and steadily increasing amount of data that must traverse the network • High network reliability • Essential when interconnecting components of distributed large-scale science • High-speed, highly reliable connectivity between Labs and US and international R&E institutions • To support the inherently collaborative, global nature of large-scale science • New network services to provide bandwidth guarantees • Provide for data transfer deadlines for • remote data analysis, real-time interaction with instruments, coupled computational simulations, etc.
