ESnet and Science UltraNet
ESnet is the
Department of Energy's high-speed production network.
It connects national laboratories, universities and other
institutions with a general-purpose IP-based network and
operates in support of DOE research missions. UltraNet,
in contrast, is an experimental testbed that will support
the development of networking and related technologies
for the specific requirements of DOE tera-scale and peta-scale
scientific applications. Its primary focus will be the
exploration of circuit-switching as an alternative to
packet switching for high-performance science applications.
ESnet will work with UltraNet in its R&D program,
and as technology is proven in UltraNet
it will be transferred to ESnet.
