LIGHTNESS - COSIGN comparison Sample Clauses

LIGHTNESS - COSIGN comparison. LIGHTNESS investigates the SDN-based integrated control of a flattened hybrid all-optical DCN, based on the OCS and OPS switching technologies. Although COSIGN proposes a different data plane architecture, the expertise achieved in LIGHTNESS will leverage the control and management of the new data plane. In addition, the knowledge on the SDN paradigm obtained in LIGHTNESS will be extremely useful to overcome the ambitious challenges committed by COSIGN at both the control and orchestration levels. COSIGN approach is more practical, aiming at realistic DC requirements that include cost, equipment readiness, scale, etc., while LIGHTNESS explores the feasibility of all-optical technologies like OPS. Although the main objective of LIGHTNESS is to provide tailored transport services to DC applications, the project has also proposed some tasks oriented to virtualize the optical DCN infrastructure. However, LIGHTNESS virtualization strategies aim to be an initial approach to be used within the optical DCN and just focused on virtualizing the LIGHTNESS specific network infrastructure. On the contrary, the objectives posed by COSIGN in this regard are much more ambitious, targeting a cross-layer approach to the virtualization of the whole DC infrastructure including IT and network resources orchestrated by the application layer to provide, for example, virtual data centre (VDC) infrastructures and multi-tenancy in a dynamic and efficient way. This includes a plethora of tasks to be conducted from the orchestration and control layers such as optimizing the optical resource utilization, optical resource virtualization, transport service provisioning, VDC provisioning, tenants management, AAA and SLA management, etc. In any case, the experience gained during LIGHTNESS in the control and management fields is expected to be helpful to overcome COSIGN’s challenges.
