Ethernet Cloud Carrier acting as a Cloud Broker • Business relationship: Ethernet Cloud Carrier to Cloud Consumer • Ethernet Cloud Carrier delivers wholesale cloud services provided by Cloud Service Providers • This Cloud Broker analogous to telecom service provider delivering Internet access services • SP provides network connectivity to customer premises • SP delivers Internet access service provided by an ISP Cloud Broker Cloud Service Provider(s) wholesale services to Ethernet Cloud Carrier Cloud Consumer Ethernet Cloud Carrier acting as Broker MEF Carrier Ethernet for Cloud (CE4Cloud) Update - Ethernet Expo Americas 2012
Cloud Service Provider acting as a Cloud Broker • Business relationship: Cloud Service Provider to Cloud Consumer • Cloud Service Provider wholesales network connectivity from Ethernet Cloud Carrier • This Cloud Broker is analogous to an ISP • ISP wholesales access network connection from incumbent telecoms service provider who owns access lines to the customer premises • ISP provides network connectivity to customer premises and Internet access service Cloud Broker Ethernet Cloud Carrier(s) wholesale services to Cloud Service Provider Cloud Consumer Cloud Service Provider acting as Broker MEF Carrier Ethernet for Cloud (CE4Cloud) Update - Ethernet Expo Americas 2012
Cloud Broker (pure reseller model) • Business Relationship: Cloud Broker to Cloud Consumer • Cloud Broker wholesales network connectivity from Ethernet Cloud Carrier(s) and cloud services from Cloud Service Provider(s) • This Cloud Broker is analogous to a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) • MVNO sells cellular voice/data services but does not own/operate a cellular wireless network Ethernet Cloud Carrier(s) wholesale services to Cloud Broker Cloud Consumer Cloud Broker Cloud Service Provider(s) wholesale services to Cloud Broker MEF Carrier Ethernet for Cloud (CE4Cloud) Update - Ethernet Expo Americas 2012
New MEF Standards Development On-Demand, Elastic Ethernet Service Attributes
Service Attributes Evolution to Better Support Cloud • Elastic Ethernet Service Attributes • On-demand change of EVC or UNI attributes for specific time period • Once time period ends, revert back to prior state • Evaluating on-demand and reservation models • Example Elastic Attributes • Increase Bandwidth (CIR) of an existing Ethernet Service (EVC) • On-demand bandwidth approaches • Based on bandwidth usage (X MBytes/month) • Based on new allocated bandwidth (200Mbps 600 Mbps CIR) • Based on aggregate allocation (800 Mbps CIR usable where needed) • Network/Cloud/Subscriber Management Orchestration • End-to-End service management and SLAs MEF Carrier Ethernet for Cloud (CE4Cloud) Update - Ethernet Expo Americas 2012
Management Orchestration Workflow Customer Portal Cloud Service Provider Management System Ethernet Cloud Carrier Management System Cloud and Network Service Orchestration Service Attribute Correlation • Add VMs and Storage • VM Moves • Add WAN BW, CoS, EVC, etc. Ethernet Cloud Carrier Cloud Consumer Cloud Service Provider Orchestration among the different management systems to create consistent Quality of Experience and better SLAs for Cloud Consumers
