  1. ANSE: Advanced Network Services for Experiments • Institutes: • Caltech (PI: H. Newman, Co-PI: A. Barczyk) • University of Michigan (Co-PI: S. McKee) • Vanderbilt University (Co-PI: P. Sheldon) • University of Texas in Arlington (Co-PI: K. De) • Presented by: ArturBarczykabarczyk@caltech.edu, or Artur.Barczyk@cern.ch • “Network Integration and Applied Innovation” program area • Integration of advanced network developments from previously funded projects with the mainstream applications in use in the LHC and other research communities • Focus on LHC, pave way for others to use same/similar approach • Main thrust: integrate advanced networking tools and services with the software stacks of the LHC experiments • LHC software: PanDA in ATLAS, PhEDEx in CMS • Networking services/tools: Dynamic circuits (DYNES, ION, OSCARS) and Monitoring (perfSONAR and MonALISA) • Strategic planning of workflow including network capacity, as well as CPU and storage capacity as a co-scheduled resource • Working with the main workflow management developers and operations staff for deterministic, worldwide distributed workflow in both CMS and ATLAS, in ANSE

  2. ANSE - Relation to DYNES • In brief, DYNES is an NSF funded project to deploy a ‘cyberinstrument’ linking up to 50 US campuses through Internet2 dynamic circuit backbone • based on ION service, using OSCARS technology • Use of OpenFlow, through Internet2’s OS3E network, being considered/tested • DYNES instrument is intended as a production-grade ‘starter-kit’ • comes with a disk server, inter-domain controller (server) and FDT (transfer application) installation • FDT code includes OSCARS IDC API -> reserves bandwidth, and moves data through the created circuit • “Bandwidth on Demand” • The DYNES system is naturally capable of advance reservation • But we need the right agent code inside CMS/ATLAS to call the API whenever transfers involve two DYNES sites • Btw - DYNES is entering production-readiness in 2013 (now)

  3. SDN Deployment at Caltech • earlier SDN installation, aka DCN testbed • ANSE is a SW development project, but will make use of infrastructure deployed as part of the DYNES instrument • This slide shows Caltech installation only! • Installation at other DYNES campuses varies • see http://dynes.internet2.edu for details • DYNES/ANSE @ Caltech: • 1 IDC server • 1 data server • 1 switch (future: OF-capable)

  4. Outlook etc. • Currently, there is no GENI deployment at Caltech • The HEP group is investigating potential installation of a GENI rack • Intended use case: network R&D for HEP data distribution • The HEP Networking group at Caltech is active in SDN R&D: • OLiMPS (Openflow Link-layer Multipath Switching) project funded by DOE-OASCR • Contact: • ArturBarczyk(HEP networking group), abarczyk@caltech.edu • Harvey Newman, newman@hep.caltech.edu
