Service-Centric Networking

This chapter introduces a new paradigm for service centric networking. Building upon recent proposals in the area of information centric networking, a similar treatment of services – where networked software functions, rather than content, are dynamically deployed, replicated and invoked – is discussed. Service-centric networking provides the mechanisms required to deploy replicated service instances across highly distributed networked cloud infrastructures and to route client requests to the closest instance while providing more efficient network infrastructure usage, improved QoS and new business opportunities for application and service providers.

Networked software’ performance metrics and analysis with ibm svc config advisor

IBM SVC is a virtualization product by IBM which deals with storage virtualization. In this IBM SVC, numbers of hetrogenous hosts are connected by means of high speed communication network. To manage configuration of these networked component is very difficult task. To automate this configuration checking is need of the world. Hence IBM SVC Config Advisor tool is developed by IBM. This tool deals with remote configuration check for storage stand including IBM SVC and Storwize products. This paper introduces the IBM SVC Config Advisor tool along with performance statistics. This paper mainly deals with the networked tool’s performance statistics collection and analysis. Here IBM SVC Config Advisor is used as networked Tool for analysis. This paper can be useful to analyze software which are highly network dependent in nature.
