Application of virtual machine (VM) migration is one of the key applications in the management of a data center. The migration task is required for several reasons such as load balancing, maintenance, or power management. Migration task need to be optimized by improving networking (e.g. end-to-end path) between VM hypervisors. Migrating VM on the best path, will certainly give a smaller migration time. Intent (i.e., intent networking) is used as a basis in path selection on the SDN to identify better networking performance (i.e., higher bandwidth). The migration measurement is taken for three parameters which are migration time, downtime, and overhead time. The measurement result shows an improvement for three different bandwidth variation.
