Auto-Scaling Mechanism in the ICT converged Cross Stratum Orchestration Architecture for Zero-Touch Service and Network Management

Lee, Young; Vilalta, Ricard; Casellas, Ramon; Martínez, Ricardo; Muñoz, Raül

This paper is aimed to provide a novel approach for an auto-scaling mechanism that are applied in the ICT converged cross stratum orchestration (CSO) architecture. CSO refers to an end-to-end orchestration across Application orchestration, Data Center SDN orchestration, and WAN SDN orchestration so that applications can be created seamlessly and optimally for operators and their customers. The auto-scaling mechanism presented in this paper is built on active monitoring of both DC compute/storage/network resources and DCI Transport network resources and then provides dynamically configurable auto-scaling and resource re-allocation. This mechanism will help tremendously the operators to control and manage their networks in an automated fashion.
