Abstract

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) and Cloud Computing are now two of the most adopted technologies, on which many organizations are working to enhance every day. For instance, SDN is particularly emerging to solve networking complexity in cloud data centers, so we see many attempts to integrate Network and Cloud Managers. In this paper, we address an integration of these two technologies, particularly a yet undiscussed combination of two popular frameworks: OpenNebula and OpenDaylight. These open source solutions are widely used for cloud management and network management, yet there are no developed modules for communication between the two. Therefore, we propose a simple way for OpenDaylight to manage OpenNebula's compute nodes, using a common component they both support: OpenvSwitch. We compared OpenNebula with the popular OpenStack cloud manager, as it is attracting more attention in both academia and industry, by evaluating some relevant time metrics and discussing the differences of the proposed technologies. Then, we deployed a test topology to conduct some traffic management techniques in this integration. Our results show that OpenNebula's deployment time as well as clean-up time is significantly lower than OpenStack, but OpenStack takes less time to the running state, besides proving the simplicity of traffic management in OpenNebula using OpenDaylight.

OpenDaylight和OpenNebula集成:测试流量管理

软件定义网络(SDN)和云计算是目前采用最多的两种技术，许多组织每天都在努力增强这两种技术。例如，SDN在解决云数据中心的网络复杂性方面尤其新兴，因此我们看到许多整合网络和云管理器的尝试。在本文中，我们讨论了这两种技术的集成，特别是两个流行框架的尚未讨论的组合:OpenNebula和OpenDaylight。这些开源解决方案广泛用于云管理和网络管理，但还没有开发用于两者之间通信的模块。因此，我们为OpenDaylight提出了一种简单的方法来管理OpenNebula的计算节点，使用它们都支持的通用组件:OpenvSwitch。我们通过评估一些相关的时间指标并讨论拟议技术的差异，将OpenNebula与流行的OpenStack云管理器进行了比较，因为它在学术界和工业界都引起了更多的关注。然后，我们部署了一个测试拓扑，以在此集成中执行一些流量管理技术。我们的研究结果表明，OpenNebula的部署时间和清理时间明显低于OpenStack，但OpenStack进入运行状态所需的时间更少，并且证明了OpenNebula使用OpenDaylight进行流量管理的简单性。

期刊介绍： The TELFOR Journal is an open access international scientific journal publishing improved and extended versions of the selected best papers initially reported at the annual TELFOR Conference (www.telfor.rs), papers invited by the Editorial Board, and papers submitted by authors themselves for publishing. All papers are subject to reviewing. The TELFOR Journal is published in the English language, with both electronic and printed versions. Being an IEEE co-supported publication, it will follow all the IEEE rules and procedures. The TELFOR Journal covers all the essential branches of modern telecommunications and information technology: Telecommunications Policy and Services, Telecommunications Networks, Radio Communications, Communications Systems, Signal Processing, Optical Communications, Applied Electromagnetics, Applied Electronics, Multimedia, Software Tools and Applications, as well as other fields related to ICT. This large spectrum of topics accounts for the rapid convergence through telecommunications of the underlying technologies towards the information and knowledge society. The Journal provides a medium for exchanging research results and technological achievements accomplished by the scientific community from academia and industry.
