1、The “Platform as a Service” Model for Networking,Eric Keller, Jennifer Rexford Princeton UniversityINM/WREN 2010,Hosted Infrastructures,Shift towards hosted and shared infrastructures Cloud computingBenefits: Dynamically scale up/down Cost benefits,2,Hosted Network Infrastructure,Poised to happen fo

7、h failure Managing resources to meet demandYes, but wont service providers deal with that?,9,Limited Market Opportunity (for service providers),Applications just want some control Either service provider provides it or develop themselves Services must be general to have a large market Are there real

8、ly that many generic services? Dont count on infrastructure providers Thats todays model,10,If not network virtualization, then what?,11,Cloud Computing Landscape,Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) e.g., Amazon EC2, Rackspace Cloud Abstraction is managing set of virtual machines Freedom: run any sof

9、tware you want Effort: manage redundancy, all software Platform as a Service (PaaS) e.g., Google App Engine, Heroku Write application using libraries and without worrying about actual servers Freedom: tied to specific platform capabilities Effort: apps scale automatically, build on the platform (And

10、 everything in between),12,Key Differences (why IaaS makes sense for computing),Compute: Legacy applications Workflow used to writing applications on servers Network: Limited developer community Not the end application,Platform enabling in-network functionality, without having to manage a network,Go
