Can make network BIGGER…
Can make service deployment FASTER…
Can make network operation SIMPLER…
Can virtualize network devices and make them CHEAPER
Incumbent: my SDN is BETTER than yours!
Confusion… over Transport SDN

Bigger? Optical transport networks can get bigger without SDN
Fact: Wavelength demand has increased 500% since 2004, while revenue growth is far less Claim #1: SDN is about scaling up networks (packet, optical, enterprise, data center and backbone) as a whole. Considering optical transport network SDN in isolation makes no sense!

Faster? Existing network architecture is the bottleneck for slow service deployment
Claim #2: Sorting out inter-networking interfaces as “NNI’s” makes no sense. We need to virtualize the network as a whole, and run IP services in an Over-The-Top (OTT) manner
![Page 6: 2013 09-22, transport sdn and ecoc, ping pan](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051817/548099b4b37959492b8b5b1d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Simpler? Don’t look for standard bodies to help you
IETF: • The routing infrastructure is
getting more complex each everyday
ITU: • OTU/ODU is not for dummies
neither
ONF: • Multi-tables in OpenFlow…
really?
Claim #3: We are not making networking simpler through standard bodies
![Page 7: 2013 09-22, transport sdn and ecoc, ping pan](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051817/548099b4b37959492b8b5b1d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Virtualization in storage and computing: • Definition: Take commodity x86 servers, represent them as uniform resources,
and utilize them for efficiency
• Goal: efficiency in utilization
• Means: commodity hardware
Reality in networking: • High-performance networking ASIC’s are all different in behavior and properties
• Transport gears don’t need to inter-op (including date encoding) to get deployed in Tier1 networks
• The driver behind transport efficiency is in packing advanced functions and features, and has little to do with commodity hardware
Claim #4: Virtualizing of network components makes no sense. The name of the game is in virtualizing the networks in terms of throughput, delay and protection capability, and provide programming interfaces.
What does VIRTUALIZATION mean?

Incumbent’s Notion of SDN: …make sure it’s called OpenXYZ
Router Networks
SDN
OpenFlow? Why stop there? Add more
Claim #5: Router vendors think the router networks are not complex, slow and expensive!

What if… • We scale up the transport network
What if… • We virtualize the network as whole
• We run IP services on top
What if… • We make the IP services 1/10 of the existing price, and sell
to 10x of the customers
