Hybrid IP/SDN Routing for Inter-Data Center Communications
Vítor Pereira, Miguel Rocha, Pedro Sousa · 2019
Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and dedicated inter-Data Center Wide Area Networks have been exploring Software-Defined Networking (SDN) features to achieve a high utilization of the available resources. This work proposes a scalable hybrid IP/SDN routing model, and optimization procedures fostered by Evolutionary Computation algorithms, to achieve near optimal network resources utilization under changing traffic requirements.
