This document discusses considerations for migrating from time-division multiplexing (TDM) to internet protocol (IP) networks. It begins with an overview of TDM and how IP networks are more scalable and flexible. Decentralizing components and implementing redundancy improves disaster preparedness. Failover and load balancing ensure continuity of operations. Software-defined networking allows portability and remote access. Standards-based protocols simplify integration and enable support of new technologies over time. The largest obstacles to migration are often time, budget, or security concerns. Migrating to IP improves network resilience and prepares critical infrastructure for the future.

Software-Defined Networking (SDN): Unleashing the Power of the NetworkRobert Keahey
It goes without saying that cloud computing has dramatically reshaped the information technology services landscape. Virtualization is unleashing the power of commodity-based technology and open source communities are building new applications and services at an astonishing rate, but networking has lagged behind compute and storage in virtualization and automation. We’ve become accustomed to specialized networking silicon, complex operating systems and highly distributed control planes. For the most part, we’ve accepted the model along with its high costs.
All that is changing! New protocols such as OpenFlow are freeing the network control plane from proprietary operating systems and hardware platforms. We are entering a new era where customers control the features – and release schedules – of new, open networking applications that address the needs of the mega-scale world.
A lot of work is required to realize the potential of Software-Defined Networking (SDN), where we can enjoy the benefits derived from “software automating software.” This talk will examine some of the history that led us to the point where current networking architectures are no longer viable for cloud computing at mega-scale. We’ll take a look at the basics of SDN and some of its key elements – OpenFlow, network virtualization, and orchestration – along with some of the initiatives and companies that are setting the stage for the next generation of networking.

Climate Science Flows: Enabling Petabyte-Scale Climate Analysis with the Eart...Globus
The Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) is a global network of data servers that archives and distributes the planet’s largest collection of Earth system model output for thousands of climate and environmental scientists worldwide. Many of these petabyte-scale data archives are located in proximity to large high-performance computing (HPC) or cloud computing resources, but the primary workflow for data users consists of transferring data, and applying computations on a different system. As a part of the ESGF 2.0 US project (funded by the United States Department of Energy Office of Science), we developed pre-defined data workflows, which can be run on-demand, capable of applying many data reduction and data analysis to the large ESGF data archives, transferring only the resultant analysis (ex. visualizations, smaller data files). In this talk, we will showcase a few of these workflows, highlighting how Globus Flows can be used for petabyte-scale climate analysis.

Providing Globus Services to Users of JASMIN for Environmental Data AnalysisGlobus
JASMIN is the UK’s high-performance data analysis platform for environmental science, operated by STFC on behalf of the UK Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). In addition to its role in hosting the CEDA Archive (NERC’s long-term repository for climate, atmospheric science & Earth observation data in the UK), JASMIN provides a collaborative platform to a community of around 2,000 scientists in the UK and beyond, providing nearly 400 environmental science projects with working space, compute resources and tools to facilitate their work. High-performance data transfer into and out of JASMIN has always been a key feature, with many scientists bringing model outputs from supercomputers elsewhere in the UK, to analyse against observational or other model data in the CEDA Archive. A growing number of JASMIN users are now realising the benefits of using the Globus service to provide reliable and efficient data movement and other tasks in this and other contexts. Further use cases involve long-distance (intercontinental) transfers to and from JASMIN, and collecting results from a mobile atmospheric radar system, pushing data to JASMIN via a lightweight Globus deployment. We provide details of how Globus fits into our current infrastructure, our experience of the recent migration to GCSv5.4, and of our interest in developing use of the wider ecosystem of Globus services for the benefit of our user community.

•
5. What is Critical Infrastructure?
“Critical infrastructure is the backbone of our
nation's economy, security and health. We know
it as the power we use in our homes, the water
we drink, the transportation that moves us, and
the communication systems we rely on to stay in
touch with friends and family.”
6. What is Critical Infrastructure?
“Without a stable energy supply,
health and welfare are threatened,
and the U.S. economy cannot
function…The Energy Sector is
uniquely critical because it
provides an “enabling function”
across all other critical
infrastructure sectors.”
Department of Homeland Security Website: http://www.dhs.gov/what-critical-infrastructure
7. An Introduction to TDM
• TDM (Time Division Multiplexing),
developed in 1870’s for the
teletype industry.
• Based on a dedicated, hardware
intensive and centralized model,
• Custom cabling, proprietary software,
local internal redundancy,
• Site recovery required duplicated, cold
standby infrastructure (2X
investment),
• TDM technology becoming obsolete,
difficult to obtain parts,
8. Contrasting IP to TDM
• Internet Protocol initially developed by US
Dept of Defense from 1960-1981, became
commercially accepted in 1980’s,
• Considered one of the most pervasive and
widely adopted technologies,
• Inherently scalable distribution
backbone for all applications,
• Standards based protocols, simplify
deployment and management,
• Foundation for decentralizing
components.
9. Common practices and
considerations for VoIP
• Private or Enterprise? Do you isolate critical traffic or leverage existing
network?
• Unicast and Multicast? Is the current infrastructure prepared to
support more complicated network requirements?
• Quality of Service vs. Bandwidth…do you have adequate capacity and
what’s the best method to manage priority, real time applications,
• End to end understanding…what do I need to do to make sure my
entire network is ready to support critical voice applications?
10. Poll Question #1
How would you describe the state of TDM to IP Migration in
your organization?
A. We know IP is coming, but are still evaluating options.
B. We have started to migrate.
C. We’re done.
D. Other
11. Decentralizing for
disaster preparedness
• Reduce loss impact by geographically
distributing components,
• Eliminate physical dependencies of
locally connected devices,
• Locate interfaces close to point of origin, eliminate costly and
non-redundant connections,
• Leverage data network redundancies, multiple paths to multiple
locations,
• Access resources anywhere across the wide area network.
12. Implementing failover and
redundancy
• Deployment of primary/secondary or load
balanced components affords hot standby
resiliency,
• Dual network connectivity of devices prevents risk of single link or
network device failure.
• Wireline (Ethernet-based) protocol interfaces enable duplicate
connections to critical components, supporting active/idle redundancies,
• Granularity and scalability of failover and redundancy highly
configurable,
• Local autonomy achieved by providing local backup resources.
13. Network wide portability
and login mobility
• Profile based login delivers consistent end user
interaction regardless of location,
• Primary, backup and remote sites all have
access to network distributed resources,
• IP Addressable communication devices,
hardware or software, enable roaming and
monitoring across an Enterprise,
• Software configurable components updated
without physical touch simplifies maintenance,
configuration and upgrades.
14. Interoperability, Integration
and Flexibility
• Communication interfaces becoming
software centric, eliminating
hardware dependencies,
• Support of legacy conventional
(analog, PRI) and advanced IP
technologies (SIP, P25 CSSI) enables
smooth migration transition,
• Modular software protocol drivers
simplify adoption and support of
emerging technologies (LTE,
Enhanced PTT, DMR).
15. Interoperability, Integration
and Flexibility
• Use of standards based protocols and
interfaces reduces risk, simplifies
integration,
• Scalable and distributed applications,
servers, gateways provides design and
evolution flexibility.
16. Poll Question #2
What do you see as the biggest obstacle to TDM-to-IP
Migration in your organization?
A.Time
B.Budget
