Manticore Proof of concept for IP Network and Router as a Service 2008
Manticore II • Improved capabilities • Pilot on NRENs 2009
October 2010 ICT-2009 Call 5 1.2.3 – Virtual Research Communities www.mantychore.eu
Mantychore @ a Glance • ICT-2010 Call 7 • 1.2.3 – Virtual Research Communities • Total Project Cost: 1,564,386€ • EC contribution: 1,399,740€ • Start date: October 2010 • Duration: 30 months • Partners composition • 1 Research Center • 2 NREN • 3 users • 1 commercial operator Overview
Network Resources • Network as a Service (NaaS)Network Resources as WebServices • Comparable to SaaS, IaaS and PaaS concepts • Interfaces, links, physical routers, logical routers, VPNs, MPLS-VPNs, firewalls are all Network Resources with certain properties • Scary but also interesting:Provide network Resources to others! • Trade-able in iterative wayMarket Place www.mantychore.eu

Virtual CPE – Scenario 1 Provider’s domain (HEAnet) • Automatic provisioning of new clients. • Via virtual routers. • Reduce need for new hardware deployments. • Providers enforce parts of the CPE configuration. • i.e. BGP policies. • Delegation of partial configuration rights to clients. • Internal IGP • VRRP • Firewall • … CPE Client A domain Client B domain PhysicalRouter LogicalRouter SA1 Software Refinement
Virtual CPE – Scenario 3 Provider’s domain (Health Data Net.) MPLS LSP’s Provider’s domain (UNI·C) • Automatic provisioning of new clients. • Via virtual routers. • Reduce need for new hardware deployments. • Providers enforce parts of the CPE configuration. • i.e. BGP policies. • Delegation of partial configuration rights to clients. • Internal IGP • VRRP • Firewall • … • Automatic provisioning of access to provider LSP channels. • Either directly or via a VPN.

Distributed & Private Cloud – Scenario 1 • Thisscenario uses Grid-Irelandnodesto test complexcloud-likesharing of resources and flexible networks. • A gridsiteisformedby: • Gridinfrastructuremachines • Gridworkernodes • Currently, onlyGridinfrastructuremachines haveconnectivity. • GridWorkernodes are onanisolated LAN. SA1 Software Refinement
Distributed & Private Cloud – Scenario 1 • Weforesee a twostageimplementation • At a firststage: • Use of a L3 VPN • Policies at TCD. • Lowimpact • Willallowthegridsitetomeet at a NREN-managedlogicalrouter • Gridworkernodes, willbeabletobeaggregated in a flexible cloud. SA1 Software Refinement
Distributed & Private Cloud – Scenario 1 • At a second stage: • Institutional IT departments will be involved in the setup. • Implement L2 solutions where possible. • Avoid tunneling overhead. SA1 Software Refinement
Distributed & Private Cloud – Scenario 2 • Threeactorsinvolved: • Campus • Computing resourcesconsumer. • RouterspartiallymanagedbyMantychore. • Mainrequirement: • Moveinfrastructuretothecloud. • Network transparency. • Avoidapplicationreconfiguration. • NaaSProvider – NREN • SUNET • L2 services • Redundantfull meshLSPs. • VM IaaSProvider – NREN or comercial operator. • Offer virtual privateclouds. • Configurable useraddressingspace.

Ultra High Definition Applications Physical topology • Deployment of next generation multimedia applications: • 3D, UHD • Stream producers and consumers: • 3D medical applications • 3D virtual tourism • Flexibility to adjust, network independent of underlying infrastructure: • Bandwidth on Demand USERS USERS GLASGOW Logical topology ESSEX JANET UK-IP USERS USERS CARDIFF USERS USERS SA1 Software Refinement
MARKETPLACE www.mantychore.eu
Marketplace • Study, design and simulation of the necessary algorithms for the implementation of the MANTYCHORE marketplace mechanism • Enable the automatic negotiation and reservation of resources between users and providers. • The capability to automatically select, orchestrate and reserve the best resources for a given request • To use the marketplace in order to allow the NRENs to announce their own infrastructure as resources of MANTYCHORE services • Users from virtual research communities will be able to access resources from several providers JRA1 Infrastructure resources marketplace
Marketplace • Definition of market place based use case • Use case emulated infrastructure JRA1 Infrastructure resources marketplace
