| | 275 | ==== Software Defined Network Exchanges (SDXs) and a Prototype Bioinformatics SDX at StarLight ==== |
| | 276 | ''This demo shows working prototypes of SDXs at !StarLight and partner sites which enable the exchange of research traffic among different types of Software Define Networks and traditional networks. '' |
| | 277 | |
| | 278 | Attendees interested in |
| | 279 | (1) Investigating the current challenges related to managing SDN networks in production exchanges [[BR]] |
| | 280 | (2) Options that have been proposed to address these challenges and the prototype demos that implement some of these options [[BR]] |
| | 281 | (3) A Virtual Exchange Prototype (VEP): SDXs for Bioinformatics Big Data [[BR]] |
| | 282 | (4) A Virtual Exchange Prototype (VEP): SDXs for Clouds [[BR]] |
| | 283 | |
| | 284 | The challenges in connecting and exchanging different types of network traffic for research and education communities consists of a number of topics that are not well known out side a very small group of network exchange communities. The recent SDN/OpenFlow technology proliferation makes these challenge important to investigate by all interested parties. !StarLight and partner sites present current prototype work underway to address such challenges, the prototype SDXs include the NSI, ofNSI, GENI AM integration, virtual SDXs for Bioinformatics SDX and Virtual SDXs for the Chameleon NSFCloud testbed. |
