HyperFlow: a distributed control plane for OpenFlow
Amin Tootoonchian,Yashar Ganjali +1 more
TL;DR: HyperFlow is logically centralized but physically distributed: it provides scalability while keeping the benefits of network control centralization, and enables interconnecting independently managed OpenFlow networks, an essential feature missing in current OpenFlow deployments.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Kandoo: a framework for efficient and scalable offloading of control applications
TL;DR: Kandoo is proposed, a framework for preserving scalability without changing switches that enables network operators to replicate local controllers on demand and relieve the load on the top layer, which is the only potential bottleneck in terms of scalability.
Proceedings Article
On controller performance in software-defined networks
TL;DR: A split architecture in which the control plane is decoupled from the data plane is referred to as Software-Defined Networking (SDN), which provides a more structured software environment for developing network-wide abstractions while potentially simplifying the data planes.
Journal ArticleDOI
On scalability of software-defined networking
TL;DR: This article deconstruct scalability concerns in software-defined networking and argues that they are not unique to SDN, and enumerate overlooked yet important opportunities and challenges in scalability beyond the commonly used performance metrics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of failures in an operational IP backbone network
Athina Markopoulou,Gianluca Iannaccone,Supratik Bhattacharyya,Chen-Nee Chuah,Yashar Ganjali,Christophe Diot +5 more
TL;DR: The authors' classification of failures reveals the nature and extent of failures in the Sprint IP backbone and provides a probabilistic failure model, which can be used to generate realistic failure scenarios, as input to various network design and traffic engineering problems.
