GENI: Infrastructure for Experimentation

GENI provides compute resources that can be connected in experimenter specified Layer 2 topologies.

GENI: Infrastructure for Experimentation

GENI provides compute resources that can be connected in experimenter specified Layer 2 topologies.

SLIDE 4

Sponsored by the National Science Foundation 4 GENI and NDN – 4 September 2014 www.geni.net

Multiple GENI Experiments run Concurrently

Resources can be shared between slices

Experiments live in isolated “slices”

ver 2300 users, dozen classes per semester

SLIDE 5

Sponsored by the National Science Foundation 5 GENI and NDN – 4 September 2014 www.geni.net

GENI is “Deeply Programmable”

I install software I want throughout my network slice (into routers, switches, …) or control switches using OpenFlow

Experimenters can set up custom topologies, protocols and switching of flows

Other Key GENI Features

Main design principles

1. Sliceable: provide isolated sandboxes 2. Deeply programmable: compute and storage in the network

Wide Area Layer 2 networks
Fine grained control over topology design

– Geographical locations, size and type of topologies

Tools for experimentation

– Orchestrate large deployments, monitor, archive, automate

Enables collaboration

– Virtual lab – Easy to share experiment configurations

SLIDE 7

GENI and NDN NDN-specific testbeds

Production prototype NDN network,

centrally managed

ONL: single site programmable

testbed

How can GENI help expand your testbed?

1. Expand the core using

nodes in GENI

Richer topology
Easy to bring up edge

nodes

Layer 2 connectivity

(multipoint AL2S VLAN)

2. Use as a sandbox
Easy to bring up multi-

site private NDN networks

Experiment with

wireless, SDN

Experiment with L2
3. Training
Tutorials, online

available to all GENI Users

Classes

Outsource authentication, easier for new researchers to get up and running

SLIDE 8

Sponsored by the National Science Foundation 8 GENI and NDN – 4 September 2014 www.geni.net

GENI and other Cloud providers

Wide Area Layer 2 network

– Extensive control over the network, geographic locations, isolated VLANs

GENI provides diverse resources

– Compute, storage, raw pcs, vm servers – Wireless infrastructure – Programmable switches

Free for research and education

SLIDE 9

GENI’s International Collaborations

GENI is working actively with peer efforts on five continents to define and adopt common concepts and APIs.

Upcoming GENI Events

GENI Engineering Conferences, held three times a year

Planning & discussion for experimenters, software, infrastructure Tutorials and workshops Travel grants to US academics for participant diversity

GEC21

Bloomington, Indiana October 20-23, 2014 Train-the-TA (Sep 11th – 18th) Offered online at the start of each semester

GEC22: Special event at Washington, March 2015

Invitees to include leaders from Government agencies, companies

and your peers from academia and industry

Plenary demos to be one of the best show and tell performances
A great opportunity to communicate your message and have maximum

impact
