Abstract :
Virtual machine migration in cloud-computing environments is an important operational technique, and requires significant network bandwidth. We demonstrate that heterogeneous bandwidth (vs. homogeneous bandwidth) for migration reduces significant resource consumption in SDN-enabled optical networks.
