Mehmet Balman, Eric Pouyoul, Yushu Yao, E. Wes Bethel Burlen Loring, Prabhat, John Shalf, Alex Sim, Brian L. Tierney, “Experiences with 100Gbps Network Applications”, The Fifth International Workshop on Data Intensive Distributed Computing (DIDC 2012), June 20, 2012,

100Gbps networking has finally arrived, and many research and educational institutions have begun to deploy 100Gbps routers and services. ESnet and Internet2 worked together to make 100Gbps networks available to researchers at the Supercomputing 2011 conference in Seattle Washington. In this paper, we describe two of the first applications to take advantage of this network. We demonstrate a visualization application that enables remotely located scientists to gain insights from large datasets. We also demonstrate climate data movement and analysis over the 100Gbps network. We describe a number of application design issues and host tuning strategies necessary for enabling applications to scale to 100Gbps rates.

In this talk, Acting Director Greg Bell will provide an update on ESnet's recent activities through the lens of its mission to accelerate discovery for researchers in the DOE Office of Science. Topics covered: what makes ESnet distinct? Why does its ScienceDMZ strategy matter? What are potential 'design patterns' for data-intensive science? Does 100G matter?

Chin Guok, Evolution of OSCARS, Joint Techs, January 23, 2012,

On-demand Secure Circuits and Advance Reservation System (OSCARS) has evolved tremendously since its conception as a DOE funded project to ESnet back in 2004. Since then, it has grown from a research project to a collaborative open-source software project with production deployments in several R&E networks including ESnet and Internet2. In the latest release of OSCARS as version 0.6, the software was redesigned to flexibly accommodate both research and production needs. It is being used currently by several research projects to study path computation algorithms, and demonstrate multi-layer circuit management. Just recently, OSCARS 0.6 was leveraged to support production level bandwidth management in the ESnet ANI 100G prototype network, SCinet at SC11 in Seattle, and the Internet2 DYNES project. This presentation will highlight the evolution of OSCARS, activities surrounding OSCARS v0.6 and lessons learned, and share with the community the roadmap for future development that will be discussed within the open-source collaboration.

Chris Tracy, 100G Deployment - Challenges & Lessons Learned from the ANI Prototype and SC11, Joint Techs, January 23, 2012,

This presentation will discuss the challenges and lessons learned in the deployment of the 100GigE ANI Prototype network and support of 100G circuit services during SC11 in Seattle. Interoperability, testing, measurement, debugging, and operational issues at both the optical and layer-2/3 will be addressed. Specific topics will include: (1) 100G pluggable optics – options, support, and standardization issues, (2) Factors negatively affecting 100G line-side transmission, (3) Saturation testing and measurement with hosts connected at 10G, (4) Debugging and fault isolation with creative use of loops/circuit services, (5) Examples of interoperability problems in a multi-vendor environment, and (6) Case study: Transport of 2x100G waves to SC11.

Joe Breen, Eli Dart, Eric Pouyoul, Brian Tierney, Achieving a Science "DMZ", Winter 2012 Joint Techs, Full day tutorial, January 22, 2012,

There are several aspects to building successful infrastructure to support data intensive science. The Science DMZ Model incorporates three key components into a cohesive whole: a high-performance network architecture designed for ease of use; well-configured systems for data transfer; and measurement hosts to provide visibility and rapid fault isolation. This tutorial will cover aspects of network architecture and network device configuration, the design and configuration of a Data Transfer Node, and the deployment of perfSONAR in the Science DMZ. Aspects of current deployments will also be discussed.

ABSTRACT    
In widely distributed systems generally, and in science-oriented Grids in particular, software, CPU time, storage, etc., are treated as “services” – they can be allocated and used with service guarantees that allows them to be integrated into systems that perform complex tasks. Network communication is currently not a service – it is provided, in general, as a “best effort” capability with no guarantees and only statistical predictability.

In order for Grids (and most types of systems with widely distributed components) to be successful in performing the sustained, complex tasks of large-scale science – e.g., the multi-disciplinary simulation of next generation climate modeling and management and analysis of the petabytes of data that will come from the next generation of scientific instrument (which is very soon for the LHC at CERN) – networks must provide communication capability that is service-oriented: That is it must be configurable, schedulable, predictable, and reliable. In order to accomplish this, the research and education network community is undertaking a strategy that involves changes in network architecture to support multiple classes of service; development and deployment of service-oriented communication services, and; monitoring and reporting in a form that is directly useful to the application-oriented system so that it may adapt to communications failures.

In this paper we describe ESnet's approach to each of these – an approach that is part of an international community effort to have intra-distributed system communication be based on a service-oriented capability.
