Co-Founders, Dan and Kato-san came up with the Midokura concept and provided the initial investment

The Midokura Story

We realized immediately that the two largest problems in building a cloud are networking and storage

Started prototyping two products: MidoNet (Software Defined Networking) and MidoStore (Object Storage)

Dropped the MidoStore product, shelved plans of being a service provider, and focused all efforts on MidoNet

This abstraction layer allows the network operator to move existing, multi-vendor, physical network appliances into a software-based virtual

multi-tenant domain.

MidoNet is an advanced Software Defined Networking (SDN) solution that uncouples your cloud from your network hardware,

creating an intelligent software abstraction layer between your end hosts and your physical network.

The MidoNet Solution

• Virtual L2 Distributed Switching • Virtual L2 Isolation • Virtual L3 Distributed Routing • Virtual L3 Isolation • L4 Services (Load Balancing, Firewall) • NAT • Access Control Lists (ACLs) • Virtual port and device monitoring • Restful API • Web based management control panel

MidoNet Key Features

Currently in limited Beta. General availability will be announced shortly.

Existing Networks are difficult to provision and scale

The current cloud networking models are inherently insecure

The current cloud networking models aren’t resilient to failures

• The standard environment that has multi-vendor heterogeneous network devices is difficult to provision.

• The difficulty of manually configuring network resources increases substantially as the size of the network increases.

• Existing network gear isn’t designed to be provisioned at the micro-granularity and high-churn of virtualized environments.

1 Existing Networks are difficult to provision and scale

A Automation and Scalability • Since MidoNet provides an abstraction layer between the

physical world and the virtual world, the underlying hardware can be disparate, multi-vendor networking gear and it only needs to be configured once (on installation of the cloud).

• With MidoNet, cloud users can manage and configure their own virtual networks centrally.  Since everything is happening in the software (virtual) layer, the physical network does not need to be re-configured as the virtual network dynamically changes.

no ssh-ing , no shell scripts , no more integration

Midokura’s Answer

•  In a multi-tenant cloud, maintaining network-level isolation between tenants has been cost-prohibitive and very onerous.

3 The current cloud networking models aren’t resilient to failures

A Resiliency • Since Midokura’s DNA is in building fault-tolerant

distributed architectures, MidoNet was designed this way since day one.

Midokura’s Answer

• The ”higher-level" network intelligence is in software, so the underlying hardware can be less-intelligent. CapEx can be substantially decreased by using common x86 gear instead of proprietary network appliances.

• OpEx can also be lowered because managing a MidoNet solution will require less specialized knowledge and manpower thereby lowering the ratio of network engineers to network devices, and subsequently increasing your human scalability.
