How Neutron builds network topology for your multi-tier application?

In this session, I will correlate an example multi-tier application network architecture with Neutron and demonstrate how beautifully Neutron builds the topology, combining multiple open source components. From a high level, you’ll learn about the process in a network deployment of an example multi-tier application—composed of a web server cluster, application server cluster, and database… Continue reading How Neutron builds network topology for your multi-tier application?

Network Connectivity in a Hybrid OpenStack Cloud

This session will discuss considerations for setting up and using a site-to-site (network-to-network) VPN connection from your on-premise datacenter that is running OpenStack Juno to an off-premise private cloud environment, running on OpenStack Icehouse. Also we’ll describe the openstack control plane network traffic and discuss the traffic that flows across the VPN connection. We’ll also… Continue reading Network Connectivity in a Hybrid OpenStack Cloud

Running Real Telco Applications on Top of an NFV Platform – Opportunities and Challenges

NFV becomes real with the migration of actual VNFs into the cloud. In this session, we will discuss the opportunities and added value in running a sample suite of applications – specifically EPC – on top on an NFV platform using Openstack. The inherent flexibility of NFV allows for operational efficiencies such as dynamic creation… Continue reading Running Real Telco Applications on Top of an NFV Platform – Opportunities and Challenges

Subnet Pools and Pluggable External IP Management in OpenStack Kilo

In Juno and before, the End User needed to know the specific subnet CIDR at the time of allocation. This made it difficult to automate the allocation of subnets – especially for external or other routable subnets. In OpenStack’s Kilo, Neutron adds Subnet Pools, allowing the Operator to define a network space from which tenants… Continue reading Subnet Pools and Pluggable External IP Management in OpenStack Kilo
