Abstract

Cloud computing platforms are gaining increasing popularity in the new service provisioning scenarios. In particular, the Infra-structure-as-a-Service delivery model poses new network design challenges and demands for appropriate dimensioning tools. This paper presents a model, based on combinatorial analysis, for anycast service provisioning in interand intra-data center optical interconnections. The model provides a design tool to evaluate cost/performance trade-offs related to resource distribution alternatives.
