Cloud services and increased machine-to-machine (M2M)
connectivity have contributed to the explosion of inter-data center traffic.
Cloud computing has redefined the way applications run on the network, exposing
the underlying limitations of the networks. To keep up, content providers have changed
the paradigm and built their own large capacity networks. However, operational
complexities and cost continue to be a challenge as bandwidth and applications
grow at a rapid pace on the network.
The market, therefore, needs a new solution specifically
designed to address this growing problem. Next-generation cloud infrastructure platforms
must meet massive capacity and scaling requirements. Content and service
providers need converged solutions that include optical and LSR functionality (see
http://www.acgresearch.net/knowledge-insights/reports-whitepapers/next-generation-lsr.aspx),
especially in the metro regional networks in order to lower the cost per bit of
transport and routing. Adding
application awareness to a converged solution will also enable content and
service providers to meet the performance and scale demands while increasing
control and enabling service innovation, all with significantly improved
economic efficiencies.
