Corsa to Present Advanced Networking Capabilities at Internet2 Tech Exchange

Corsa to demonstrate multi-site SDN, advanced networking and encapsulation-as-a-service establishing its continued leadership in the SDN ecosystem

OTTAWA, ON (Canada) – Sept. 21, 2016 – Corsa Technology, the leader in performance SDN switching, today announced its participation on September 26-28 at the Internet2 Tech Exchange event including four presentations that highlight key customers’ experiences leveraging Corsa technology for SDN and network upgrades. Corsa will provide attendees with a holistic view of its leadership in performance SDN solutions through onsite demonstrations and network use cases.

“Internet2 Tech Exchange is the perfect setting to share our industry-leading capabilities in delivering open, programmable performance SDN,” said Bruce Gregory, CEO of Corsa. “Corsa provides the technology that network architects need to build high-performance advanced networks that keep up with the demands being placed on the network today and into the future.”

The following information details the events Corsa will participate in during the weeklong SDN and NFV focused conference.

CC-NIE DANCES Project: Implementing Multi-Site SDN-Enables Applications: “Developing Applications with Networking Capabilities via End-to-end SDN” (DANCES) is a National Science Foundation-funded, collaborative CC-NIE Network Integration and Applied Innovation project. The goal of the DANCES project is to add network bandwidth scheduling capabilities to selected high-performance computing infrastructure applications to improve performance and predictability of wide area file transfers. The applications targeted for SDN integration were job scheduling and the wide-area distributed file system SLASH2 developed at the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center. The presentation will cover the SDN functionality provided by DANCES, the system architecture, the software and hardware components, lessons learned during system integration, and the outcome of testing the SDN-enabled applications.

  • Who: Bryan Learn, 3ROX
  • Where: Event room – Trianon
  • When: Monday, Sept. 26 9:00-9:20 AM

An Integrated SDN ScienceDMZ: The Science DMZ design pattern is an effective way to provide high-performance data transfer while avoiding the need to scale up the entire campus gateway infrastructure (router, firewall, IDS, etc.) to handle occasional ultra-high bandwidth flows. Nevertheless, campus IT security and policy guidelines must still be enforced. This presentation will discuss what we have learned in designing and deploying a high-performance SDN dataplane as a Science DMZ “on ramp” to the Internet2 backbone. Traffic management, control integration, security, bandwidth partitioning and guarantees, and techniques to simplify deployment and operation of an SDN Science DMZ will be covered in the presentation.

  • Who: Ben Mack-Crane, Corsa Technology
  • Where: Event room – Trianon
  • When: Monday, Sept. 26 9:30-9:50 AM

Emergent Virtualization Services in R&E Networks: Virtualization has been a common theme in e-Infrastructure for many years: Virtual Circuits, Virtual LANs, Virtual Private Network, and Virtual Machines are just a few prominent examples of this service concept as seen in the networking community. However, this concept has made substantial strides in recent years, and more advanced and comprehensive services are being deployed that bring these independent notions of virtual resources into a common framework for virtualized e-infrastructure.

This session will present three talks. The first will address the “readiness” factor – is virtualization ready for high-performance networks? The second talk of the session will present a virtualization example in SDN switching – work that brings together both virtualization and SDN technologies. A third talk will present experimental extensions to the GTS implementation to implement network function virtualization and function chaining.

  • Who: Jerry Sobieski, NORDUnet; Yatish Kumar, Corsa Technology; Richard Cziva, University of Glasgow
  • Where: Event room – Brickell
  • When: Monday, Sept. 26 2:30-3:20 PM

Advanced Networking: Lightning Talk: “Encapsulation-as-a-service: What is it, and why you’re really going to want it” — We often discuss network services in terms of forwarding behaviour. AL2S, AL3S, transit, peering, etc. However, encapsulation is not always thought of as a service, or even a specific layer in the OSI model. In this talk, we discuss the possibilities that can be opened up in terms of network use cases when we think of encapsulation as a service provided by your ISP or upstream provider.

  • Who: Yatish Kumar, Corsa Technology
  • Where: Event room – Trianon
  • When: Wednesday, Sept. 28 4:10-5:00 PM

Corsa Demo: See firsthand how VFCs can help solve your networking challenges. Corsa hardware helps spin up a virtual switch, router or OpenFlow Switch with all the performance needed. Learn how to use an SDN controller on one or multiple VFCs, move the VFC to different physical ports and different logical service assignments, apply unique metering, queuing and shaping to VFCs. Take a few minutes to get to know Corsa and what we can deliver in advanced networking.

  • Where: Booth #5
  • When: Daily
