Agile and economic media-centric service realization over Software-Defined Infrastructure

Abstract

The lifecycle management of service realization is very challenging. With virtualized playgrounds over Future Internet testbeds, the lifecycle experiments could be easily exercised so that all tasks and responsibilities are well-defined for entire experiment stages among developers and operators. Also, the dynamic provisioning of hyper-convergent compute/networking/storage resources is appropriately streamlined with the experiment lifecycle. In this paper, by considering these issues, we discuss the agile and economic realization of automated media-centric experiments over OF@TEIN (OpenFlow @ Trans-Eurasian Information Network) SDI (Software-Defined Infrastructure).
