GIMI: Large-scale GENI Instrumentation and Measurement Infrastructure

In this GEC13 demo we will perform OML-capable Iperf throughput measurements from locations all over the US (potentially all over the world) to instances in different clouds (EC2, GENICloud, ORCA). We will demonstrate how such a measurement can be performed in an automated fashion by i) allocating required resources, ii) instantiating images that include pre-installed measurement tools, iii) permanently storing the data in a distributed repository, and iv) making results available via the GIMI portal. The result will show the network capacities from many locations into several cloud platforms. This information might be critical in deciding where an application that is highly dependent on networking performance should be hosted.

Collaborating projects:

OML/OMF

DiCloud

ORCA

Gush

WIMAX (NYU Poly)

Equipment:

1 Projector

1 Large monitor

This is a combined ExoGENI/GIMI demo that will show how GIMI can be used to observe an experiment that is carried out on an ExoGENI slice. I will demonstrate the GIMI portal and its instrumentation and measurement services.

Brief demo description (A few sentences suitable for a GEC attendee information page. See ​http://groups.geni.net/geni/wiki/GEC16Agenda/EveningDemoSession ) This is a combined ExoGENI/GIMI demo that will show how GIMI can be used to observe an experiment that is carried out on an ExoGENI slice. I will demonstrate the GIMI portal and its instrumentation and measurement services.

List of equipment that will need AC connections (e.g. laptop, switch hardware prototype, monitor). (Just put in the number of connections needed if your demo description already lists the equipment) Power for 2 Laptops

Number of wired network connections (include required bandwidth if significant) 1 wired connection (see more at "special requests") below.

Number of wireless network connections (include required bandwidth if significant) 2

Number of static addresses needed (if any) 0

Monitor (y/n, specify VGA or DVI) (Specify resolution only if your software has resolution restrictions.) yes, VGA

Number of posters (max size poster boards are 30" x 40") 1

Description of any special requests (include any specific network connectivity needs (e.g. layer2 VLAN to NLR), projects you'd like to be located near, etc.) We need 1 layer 2 VLAN connection and have already talked to Heidi about this.
