• What do we really want in a Virtual Data Center• Can we achieve the benefits without the complexity?• What are the important abstractions?• What is exposed to application developers, what is hidden? • Specialized processor capabilities, e.g. GPUs? • Networks, subnets, routing? • VM Placement, Geographic location, region? • Access to physical network services (load balancers, firewalls, etc.)?• How can we plan for future innovation in infrastructure? 12

• Compute service (EC2): virtual machines App Svr • Specify vCPU, Memory, Disk OS • Launch instance (image, mem_size, disk) VM • Suspend, clone, migrate• Storage service (S3, EBS): virtual disks • Specify storage amount, access rights • Store object • Create/attach block• What to do about networks? 17

Quantum Service API API Extensions• API for creating and managing virtual networks and services• Called by “tenants” and other OpenStack services Quantum Plug-in Framework Vendor/User Plug-In• Maps abstraction to implementation on physical network• Makes all decisions about *how* a network is implemented 20

“Innovation above and below the line” IaaS PaaS XaaS Auto-scaling apps Innovation in the design of cloud-based applicationsCloud Platform – API Interface – Resource Abstractions Compute, Storage and Networking Infrastructure 23

Massive Scale Applications Cloud Platform – API Interface – Resource Abstractions Unified computing, virtual switches, overlay networks, and software defined networkingKVM, Xen, ESXi, N1Kv, Open vSwitch, LISP, VXLAN, STT, OpenFlow 24

Application, “I would like certain resources (of type …) certain virtual topologies, specific services” OpenStack Quantum Service Lower levels provision physical or virtual resources, setup configuration, and provide information backNetwork Service is very new – still lots to be done – and keep it simple • Span multiple data centers? • Best placement of VMs? • Network security, policies? • Quality of service? • Notion of a network container? • SLA guarantees? 25

• Advantages of cloud computing • On-demand virtualized resources, self- service, lower cost • Resources managed by others• Ability to create your own isolated private networks• Extensible• Challenge!! Quantum • Easy-to-use Network Service • Minus the complexity of the traditional data center • Work work with different networking infrastructure 26

• Incubation during this past period (Essex)• Voted to go into core with Folsom release• Publicly available implementations (plugins): • Open vSwitch, Linux Bridge, Cisco UCS/Nexus, Nicira NVP, Ryu OpenFlow• Still quite basic – but evolving quickly • L3 IP address management, subnets, routing, services• Extensions mechanism for exposing new capabilities• Stay for the following talks on Quantum • OpenStack Quantum for Cloud Operators • Panel on OpenStack Networking• http://wiki.openstack.org/Quantum 27
