Dell's vision for data center networking is an open ecosystem where organizations can choose from innovative network applications, operating systems, and hardware from various vendors. Dell's open networking solutions enable building application-agnostic infrastructures and simplifying management with standard automation tools and open platforms. This reduces costs and effort for network design, provisioning, and management compared to proprietary systems. Dell offers a portfolio of open networking switches that support open standards and third-party operating systems for more flexibility and choice.
Where Does Networking Fit In? To gain the full benefits of cloud computing and virtualization and achieve a business agile IT infrastructure, organizations need a reliable, high-performance data center networking infrastructure with built-in investment protection. Several technology inflection points are coming together that are fundamentally changing the way networks are architected, deployed and operated both in the public cloud as well as the private cloud. From performance, to scale, to virtualization support and automation to simplified orchestration, the requirements are rapidly changing and driving new approaches to building data center networks.
With Extreme Networks, IT can manage more with less. Automated intelligence and analytics for compliance, forensics, and traffic patterns translates into reduced help desk calls. Businesses can predict costs and return on investment, and increase employee productivity by securely onboarding BYOD, increasing both customer and employee satisfaction. A constant risk to the network, and ultimately the hospital, are unapproved applications and rogue devices that may appear on the network and either permit unauthorized access or interfere with other devices. A means to monitor all devices and applications that operate across the network is vital. Just as important are the audit and reporting capabilities necessary to report on who, what, where, when, and how patient data is accessed.
What is SDN? What software-defined networking really means has evolved dramatically and now includes automation and virtualization. Hardware is still a critical component in data center networking equipment, but the influence of switch software shouldn’t be overlooked. When everyone began to get excited about SDN a few years ago, we thought of it as only one thing: the separation of network control from network data packet handling. Traditional networks had already started down this path, with the addition of controller cards to manage line cards in scalable chassis-based switches, and with various data center fabric technologies. SDN took the idea to its logical end, removing the need for the controller and the packet handlers to be on the same backplane or even from the same vendor.
Cost. Reducing costs in the data center and contributing to corporate profitability is an increasingly important trend in today’s economic climate. For example, energy costs for the data center are increasing at 12% a year. Moreover, increased application requirements such as 100% availability necessitate additional hardware and services to manage storage and performance thus raising total cost of ownership.
An experience is a personal and emotional event we remember. Every experience is established based upon pre-determined expectations we conceive and create in our minds. It’s personal, and therefore, remains a moving and evolving target in every scenario. When our experience concludes and the moment has passed, the outcome remains in our memory. Think about what makes you happy when connecting with your own device and then think about what makes you really upset when things are hard, complicated, and slow. If the user has a bad experience in anyone of these areas (simple, fast, and smart), they are likely to leave, share their negative experience, and potentially never return. Users might forget facts or details about their computing environment but they find it difficult to forgot the feeling behind a bad network experience. When something goes wrong with the network or an application, do you always get the blame?
Next Generation Ethernet
Next Generation Ethernet is a platform that should deliver all of previous function requirements under on hood. I have grouped the Generations in this way because Cisco has different purpose-built product lines for each of 4 waves of technology. Counter to that Extreme offers a platform solution for a customer to build his network on. Extreme does not require different switches to address different convergence requirements, this would be cost prohibitive for most customers and complicated. Simply put to disrupt the Cisco market, Extreme must deliver more with less.
The IEEE is pushing Ethernet to unimaginable speeds, with the 40/100Gigabit Ethernet standard expected to be ratified in 2010 and Terabit Ethernet on the drawing board for 2015. Here's a timeline showing key milestones in the growth of Ethernet Sstandard's-compliant products are expected to ship in the second half of next year, not long after the expected June 2010 ratification of the 802.3ba standard.
Complexity - Complex systems are a special type of chaotic system. They display a very interesting type of emergent behavior called, logically enough, complex adaptive behavior. But we are getting ahead of ourselves. There’s a need to back up a bit and describe a fundamental behavior that occurs at the granular level and leads to complex adaptive behavior. It is self -organization. Complex Adaptive Behavior is the name given to this forming-falling apart-reforming-falling apart-… behavior. Specifically it is defined as many agents working in parallel to accomplish a goal. It is conflict ridden, very fluid, and very positive. The hallmark of emergent, complex adaptive behavior is it brings about a change from the starting point that is not just different in degree but in kind. In biology a good example of this is the emergence of consciousness. Another example is the Manhattan Project and the development of the atomic bomb. Below is a checklist that helps facilitate a qualitative assessment of the level of complexity. It is in everyday language to facilitate use by a broad range of stakeholders and team members. In other words, it stays away from jargon, which can be the kiss of death when requesting information from people.
The Checklist
Not sure how the project will get done; Many stakeholders, teams and sub-teams;
Too Many vendors; New vendors;
New client; Team members are geographically dispersed;
End-users are geographically dispersed; Many organizations;
Many cultures (professional, organizational, sociological);
Many languages (professional, organizational, sociological);
High risk;
Lack of quality best characterized by lack of acceptance criteria;
Lack of clear requirements and too Many tasks;
Arbitrary budget or end date;
Inadequate resources;
Leading-edge technology;
New, unproven application of existing technology;
High degree of interconnectedness (professional, technological, political, sociological).
An alternative to the core/aggregation/access layer network topology has emerged known as leaf-spine. In a leaf-spine architecture, a series of leaf switches form the access layer. These switches are fully meshed to a series of spine switches. One way is to create a Spine and Leaf architecture, also known as a Distributed Core. This architecture has two main components: Spine switches and Leaf switches. Intuition Systems can think of spine switches as the core, but instead of being a large, chassis-based switching platform, the spine is composed of many high-throughput Layer 3 switches with high port density. The mesh ensures that access-layer switches are no more than one hop away from one another, minimizing latency and the likelihood of bottlenecks between access-layer switches. When networking vendors speak of an Ethernet fabric, this is generally the sort of topology they have in mind.
Haven’t we spent the last few decades disaggregating datacenter architecture? And if so, what does disaggregation mean now, is it something different? Strictly speaking, to “disaggregate” means to divide
If the number of spine switches were to be merely doubled, the effect of a single switch failure is halved. With 8 spine switches, the effect of a single switch failure only causes a 12% reduction in available bandwidth. So, in modern data centers, people build networks with anywhere from 4 to 32 spine switches. With a leaf-spine network, every server on the network is exactly the same distance away from all other servers – three port hops, to be precise. The benefit of this architecture is that you can just add more spines and leaves as you expand the cluster and you don't have to do any recabling. Intuition Systems will also get more predictable latency between the nodes.
As a trend, disaggregation seems to be most useful for very large companies like Facebook and Google, or cloud providers. The technology does not necessarily have significant implications for small or medium sized businesses. Historically, however, technology has a way of trickling down from the pioneering phases of existing only within large companies with tremendous resources, to becoming more standardized across the board.

Topic of Presentation: Handling high-bandwidth-consumption applications in a modern DC design
Language: English
Abstract: Modern Data Centre requires proper handling of high-bandwidth consuming applications, like BigData or IP Storage. To achieve this, next generation Ethernet speeds of 25, 50 and 100Gbps are being pursued. We are to show _why_ these new Ethernet speeds are vital from technology standpoint and _how_ to cope with the those sparkling new requirements by networking hardware enablements. We are to share ethernet switches’ design considerations, with the biggest emphasis put on the importance of big buffers and how they accommodate this bursty traffic. Throughout the presentation we will additionally elaborate on the evolution of variety of modern applications, and how we can handle those with the properly designed hardware, software, and Data Centre itself.
Extreme is rethinking the data plane, the control plane, and the management plane. Extreme is a better mouse trap which delivers new features, advanced function, and wire-speed performance. Our switches deliver deterministic performance independent of load or what features are enabled. All Extreme Switches are based on XOS, the industries first and only truly modular operating system. Having a modular OS provides higher availability of critical network resources. By isolating each critical process in its own protected memory space, a single failed process can not take down the entire switch. Application modules can be loaded and unloaded without the need for rebooting the switch. This is the level of functionality that users expect on other technology. Reaching the twenty million port milestone is a significant achievement demonstrating how our highly effective network solutions, with rich features, innovative software and integrated support for secure convergence. VoIP/Unified Communica Fons/Infrastructure/SIP Trunking (SBC) – Because of strong ROI, investment in this segment remains on a very strong growth trajectory.
Enterprises depend on modular switching solutions for all aspects of the enterprise network: in the enterprise core and data center, the distribution layer that lies between the core and wiring closet, and in the wiring closet itself. Modular solutions provide port diversity and density that fixed solutions simply cannot match. There are also high-capacity modular solutions that only the largest of enterprises and institutions use for high-density and high-speed deployments. Modular solutions are generally much more expensive than their fixed cousins, especially in situations where density or flexibility are not required. Fixed-configuration stackable switches are typically cost- optimized, but they offer no real port diversity on an individual switch. Port diversity means the availability of different port types, such as fiber versus copper ports. Stackable switches have gotten better at offering port diversity, but they still cannot match their modular cousins. Many of these products now offer high-end features such as 802.3af PoE, QoS, and multi-layer intelligence that were only found on modular switches in the past. This is due to the proliferation of third-party merchant silicon in the fixed configuration market. Generally, a stack of fixed configuration switches can be managed as a single virtual entity. Fixed configuration switches generally cannot be used to provision an entire large enterprise, but instead are mostly used out at the edge or departmental level as a low-cost alternative to modular products.

Ethernet is Open

Marvell FastLinQ 3400 and 8400 Series 10GbE Adapters Unleash the Power of Data Center Servers
Network interface card (NIC) Switch Independent Partitioning can simplify end-to-end networking by dividing a network controller port into as many as four partitions, enabling dynamic allocation of bandwidth as needed while reducing the total cost of ownership.
Ethernet technology made significant progress in recent years ushering a new era of terabit transport. It has now achieved 400GbE per link speed and leaping towards 800GbE. Such trend will shape the future of networks allowing hyperscale data centers, cloud and service providers to offer more service and less worry on bandwidth. It would be interesting to know what future holds. Read this article to learn more about 400GbE and the possibilities it brings.

Software Defined Network (SDN) using ASR9000 :: BRKSPG-2722 | San Diego 2015Bruno Teixeira
With the changing paradigm of network programmability using Software Defined Network (SDN), we are seeing new ways for monitoring, scaling and configuring network devices. With new network programability capabilities utilizing NETCONF, OpenFlow, BGP-LS, and PCEP it is vital for network architects and operations engineers to understand how these SDN related technologies can be leveraged to streamline the way we view, design, and operate our networks today. This session introduces these concepts and focuses on the use cases, implementation, and troubleshooting of these technologies on the ASR9000 platform.
Many analysts predict that 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) is ready to take off in HPC environments. 10GbE can meet low-latency and high bandwidth I/O requirements using familiar Ethernet networking leveraging Ethernet training, and management and debugging tools, which are ubiquitous in networking. Using efficient and cost-effective 10GbE to interconnect the blade servers, HPC clusters can take advantage of dense blade-server compute nodes to lower power consumption and reduce floor space.

First Steps with Globus Compute Multi-User EndpointsGlobus
In this presentation we will share our experiences around getting started with the Globus Compute multi-user endpoint. Working with the Pharmacology group at the University of Auckland, we have previously written an application using Globus Compute that can offload computationally expensive steps in the researcher's workflows, which they wish to manage from their familiar Windows environments, onto the NeSI (New Zealand eScience Infrastructure) cluster. Some of the challenges we have encountered were that each researcher had to set up and manage their own single-user globus compute endpoint and that the workloads had varying resource requirements (CPUs, memory and wall time) between different runs. We hope that the multi-user endpoint will help to address these challenges and share an update on our progress here.
Listen to the keynote address and hear about the latest developments from Rachana Ananthakrishnan and Ian Foster who review the updates to the Globus Platform and Service, and the relevance of Globus to the scientific community as an automation platform to accelerate scientific discovery.

How to Position Your Globus Data Portal for Success Ten Good PracticesGlobus
Science gateways allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, and instruments. Science gateways have gained a lot of traction in the last twenty years, as evidenced by projects such as the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence on Science Gateways (SGX3) in the US, The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and its platforms in Australia, and the projects around Virtual Research Environments in Europe. A few mature frameworks have evolved with their different strengths and foci and have been taken up by a larger community such as the Globus Data Portal, Hubzero, Tapis, and Galaxy. However, even when gateways are built on successful frameworks, they continue to face the challenges of ongoing maintenance costs and how to meet the ever-expanding needs of the community they serve with enhanced features. It is not uncommon that gateways with compelling use cases are nonetheless unable to get past the prototype phase and become a full production service, or if they do, they don't survive more than a couple of years. While there is no guaranteed pathway to success, it seems likely that for any gateway there is a need for a strong community and/or solid funding streams to create and sustain its success. With over twenty years of examples to draw from, this presentation goes into detail for ten factors common to successful and enduring gateways that effectively serve as best practices for any new or developing gateway.
