EU NREN’s – EU NREN’s – GÉANTGÉANTnn:: A Success Story - A Success Story - Why?Why?
• Century old Telecom (+ 40 years ARPAnet - Internet) experience: Proven strong “Network Externalities” Sharing tradition
• Industry needs for Next Generation Network proofs of concept, synergy with R&E community: The ARPAnet paradigm @ the US of America, inspiring the “US of Europe”
• Foresight of National + EU funding authorities, triggered by NREN planning – SERENATE, EARNEST Studies
• A decade (+) of success in serving R&E needs of the Continent Smoothing-out “digital divides” & enabling powerful education communities (educators, students, pupils?)
• NREN’s as utilities for the R&E communities – extending the “commons” principle aka. Open Source S/W, Wikipedia…
• Solidarity & orchestrated innovations within the NREN community, efficient service coordination (DANTE) & human networking (TERENA)
• NREN’s – GÉANT provide cost effective e2e switched & light path connectivity within the Dark Fiber Cloud (DWDM footprint)+ Global IPv4 – IPv6 coverage and Hybrid networking services+ Multi-domain Network management, resiliency & support
• e-Science Virtual Organizations obtain production quality hybrid networking, beyond leasing individual circuits, wave-lengths or dark fibers
• e-Infrastructures as equalizers, reduce the DIGITAL DIVIDES in Europe & globally: Big Science affordable via virtual e-Science
• NRENs – GÉANT stimulate Network Research & enable novel concept evaluation - emulations in a global production environment via virtualization of facilities & services

• Extending the service portfolio to production quality multi-domain hybrid networking– Campus, NRENs, GÉANT…
– Innovate to resolve the multi-domain impasse
• Integrating Control Plane Functionality within Distributed Computing (GRID, SOA) Middleware
• Translating into a common view an enriched set of per-domain information, feedback to standardization bodies (IETF, OIF, ITU-T, OGF)
Note that there are up to now ONLY TWO inter-domain control plane (signaling) success stories:

• Production quality multi-domain services to enable NRENs in:
– Federated Roaming (Eduroam), AAI & ID management (eduGAIN)
– Multi-protocol monitoring at 10 -100 Gig speeds (perfSONAR+)
– End-to-end Provisioning (E2ECU, Ishare)
– Automated multi-domain provisioning (AutoBAHN)

• Extend the NREN – GÉANT Services to provisioning of integrated IT services that include:– Multi-domain hybrid networking services (Campus, NREN, GEANT)
– Virtualization of resources
– Storage (?)
– Computing (?)
• Converging e-Infrastructures– Relationship with Grid – Supercomputing
– Towards cloud computing aka. Google, Amazon, IBM…?
– Now more than ever the NETWORK IS THE COMPUTER

Summarizing the GÉANT Vision in GN3Summarizing the GÉANT Vision in GN3
• To create an innovative resilient multi-domain hybrid networking environment, using advanced optical transmission & switching technologies
• To enable R&E users through their Organizations with flexible, open, interoperable & scalable production quality services via their constituent NRENs
• To be an enabler for Global R&E networking supporting international e-Science initiatives, creating a Global Virtual Village to house researchers & educators around the world
• To contribute to standards as a key participant in European & Global efforts towards the Future Internet

FEDERICA @ a GlanceFEDERICA @ a Glance
• Federated E-infrastructures Dedicated to European Researchers Innovating in Computing network Architectures
• RI FP7 Project, based on stakeholders on network research: – NRENs, GÉANT, end-users and vendors– Coordinator: GARR (the Italian NREN)
• Aims to:– Employ initially up to 1 Gbps MPLS & GigE circuits from NRENs and
GÉANT (GÉANT+ service)– Install open source routers, programmable routers and open API switches
in selected NREN PoPs– Develop a tool-bench for managing virtual e2e facilities– Provide virtualized facilities to end-users: Research groups on the network
of the future, requiring disruptive emulations– Act as a pre-normative step towards incorporation within GÉANT (GN3)
