Transcript CA*net II
Rationale for GLIF November 2004 CA*net 4 Update > Network is now 3 x 10Gbps wavelengths – Cost of wavelengths dropping dramatically – 3rd wavelength operational in June > Support for e2e lightpaths for high end applications – most top research institutions interested – E.g. 10GbE CWDM to TRIUMF on UBC campus > Future growth likely for international transit lightpaths > Korea, Taiwan, Ireland and others have purchased UCLP lightpaths across CA*net4 > In negotiation with other networks > UCLP being deployed on Internet2, TANet2, KREOnet, i2CAT CA*net 4 is NOT an optical switched network > CANARIE has no interest in optical experiments – E.g. HOPI, GMPLS, etc > There are few applications that need 10 Gbps > There are few applications that require 2 Ghz + 2 Gbytes memory on the PC > Cost of bandwidth is dramatically dropping – Cost of wavelengths now affordable by individual researchers – CAVE*net good example > CA*net 4 is made up of many parallel application empowered or customer empowered specific networks eg: – Computer back planes (Westgrid) – High energy physics network > The CA*net 4 tries to answer the question how can these autonomous network islands interconnect to each other without a central organization like telco, CANARIE or Internet 2 UCLP: Objectives > Network management – integrate wavelengths and fiber from different suppliers – integrate within network management domain – offer VPNs to users > Create discipline specific re-configurable IP networks – Multi-homed network which bypasses firewalls with direct connect to servers and routers > User controlled traffic engineering – Active replacement for Sockeye and Route Science – Alternative to MPLS Today’s hierarchical IP network Other national networks National IP Network ORA N University ORA N ORA N Region al ORA N Tomorrow’s peer to peer IP network World World Anybody can peer with anybody National IP Network World ORA N ORA N ORA N ORA N University Region al Server World Creation of application VPNs University Dept High Energy Physics Network Commodity Internet University Research Network CERN University Bio-informatics Network University University eVLBI Network UCLP intended for projects like National LambdaRail NLR 2 partner acquires a separate wavelength between Seattle and Chicago and wants to manage it as part of its network including add/drop, routing, partition etc NLR Condominium lambda network UCLP: Applications 1 > International Transit – Korea, Ireland, Taiwan layer 1 transit – Other countries under negotiation > ORANs – Layer 1 restoral and protections paths – BCnet, ORANO and RISQ to date > Distributed back planes between HPC Grid centers – Westgrid (1 GbE moving to 10 GbE) – AceNet to come > Distributed Single Mount file systems – Yotta, Yotta - SGI – Needs consistent performance and throughput – Frequent topology changes to meet needs of specific applications UCLP: Applications 2 > ATLAS Canada – 980 Gbytes FCAL data once a month from CERN to Carleton U, UoAlberta, UoArizona, etc – Will significantly increase to Terabytes when production runs start – Would take over 80 days on IP R&E network > CERN Low level trigger data to UoAlberta – Initially streaming data rates 1 Gbps moving to 10Gbps later in the year > Canadian virtual observatory – .5 Tbyte per day to UoToronto and UoHawaii – 250 Mbps continuous streaming from CCD devices > Canada Light Source Synchrotron – remote streaming of data acquisition to UoAlberta – 2 to 5 Gbps continuously Typical Large system today VPN USER Internet Security Web Services OGSA DMAS Process Process Process Process Process SONET/DWDM Instrument Pod SONET/DWDM Layer 3 switch/router Layer 2 switch Sensor Sensor Instrument Instrument Sensor Service Oriented Architectures HPC VPN WS* WS* CA*net 4 Lightpath Process Data Management System WS** Process Process WS** Process WS Process Process LAN WS LAN Web service Interface *CANARIE UCLP CA*net 4 Instrument Pod WS* WS* **New web services Sensor Sensor WS Instrument Layer 2/3 switch Instrument Sensor USER Science user perspective WS* WS* WS** CANARIE UCLP WS** WS AAA process WS* Lightpath WS* ONS15454 New Web service New development UDDI or WSIL service registry WS** Log Archive Process 2 WS** Log Archive Process 1 WS* LAN WS* LAN WS** Sensor/Instrument WS HPC Process WS** NLR or CA*net 4 DMAS USER with WSFL binding software Science Pod User defined WSFL bindings
