e. IRG Recommendation on Hybrid Networking & GÉANT Connect. Communicate. Collaborate “The e. IRG stresses the importance of flexibly configurable, reliable end-to-end optical provision to European researchers and e. Science projects. This service should coexist with routed IP connectivity and follow the three tier hierarchical European paradigm: Campus LAN, NREN and Pan-European GÉANT network” Den Haag, 19/11/2004 EGEE 4 th Conference, Pisa, October 2005
• Global Hybrid Networking & GÉANT 2 Connect. Communicate. Collaborate The Internet enabled the ubiquitous global networked community based on IP services & the Web • The Next Generation Hybrid Networks enable the global knowledge – based society by providing advanced collaborative platforms via hybrid IP IPv 6 routing & Light-path switching over Dark Fiber • R&E HPCN and Grid requirements motivated the design and deployment of GÉANT 2 as a hybrid, Dark-Fibre (DF) network • The NREN - Grid /HPC communities test – develop - tailor and deploy network-based services & collaborative applications: monitoring resources, SLA drafting and enforcing, security management, AAA, roaming of R&E users … • GÉANT 2 offers this new environment to European Researchers & Educators and paves the way for global, ubiquitous advanced networking services (cyber-services) EGEE 4 th Conference, Pisa, October 2005

GÉANT 2 & EGEE Shared Objectives Connect. Communicate. Collaborate • Advance HPCN infrastructures in Europe by common collaborative activities on: – Provisioning of Premium IP and e 2 e L 1 or L 2 (switched) light-paths by GÉANT 2, NRENs and Campus Networks to EGEE Resource Centers – Integration within Grid Middleware of network management and control plane functionality – Definition of complementary SLAs for network and Grid resource sharing – Deployment of multi-domain, multi-level monitoring, security, AAI • Share cost – pricing - business model experience between NRENs + GÉANT and National Grid Initiatives + EGEE, DEISA, SEEGRID • Plan network upgrades considering Grid requirements (including Global connectivity) EGEE 4 th Conference, Pisa, October 2005
EGEE & GÉANT 2 Challenges Connect. Communicate. Collaborate • Reaching the Grid end-users from GÉANT 2 Po. Ps (local circuits provided by NRENs and Campuses) • Integrating GÉANT 2 facilities & Cross Border Fibers (CBFs) in Optical Private Networks (OPNs) • Cost sharing of e 2 e circuits • Planning based on common understanding and “accurate” prediction of requirements (bandwidth, availability, delay, jitter …) • Who, how and to what extend provisions, manages, monitors, charges, absorbs the costs, undertakes risks in a multi-domain network of Grid resources? – The LHC T 0 – T 1 paradigm paves the way and uncovers hidden issues (technical & managerial) EGEE 4 th Conference, Pisa, October 2005

Why Grids (and EGEE) should use GÉANT 2 ? Connect. Communicate. Collaborate • GÉANT 2 provides light-path ubiquitous connectivity within the GÉANT 2 Dark Fiber DWDM footprint • + Global IP coverage (and progressing towards Global Hybrid networking) • + Network management, resiliency and support. EGEE VOs obtain customized, production quality networking services via Optical Private Networks, beyond leasing p 2 p wave-lengths or dark fiber lines LAST BUT NOT LEAST • Affinity of Networking & Grid communities, sharing the same mission: Provision of leading-edge e. Infrastructures for Research and advancement of HPCN technologies as European added value EGEE 4 th Conference, Pisa, October 2005
