  1. eCommerce Infrastructure

  2. eCommerce Infrastructure • Most of commerce (and eCommerce) is exchange of information, not goods • The most efficient way to move information (cost per bit) to a large number of destinations is the Internet • Allows point-to-point communication with arbitrary people and companies • The Internet is getting bigger fast

  3. Internet Host Count 1991-2003 “Host”  computer than can be reached by a URL ESTIMATE: 300,000,000 hosts by 2005 172,000,000

  4. Internet Leverage by Country WORLD TOTAL USERS (AUG. 2003): 700,000,000 LEVERAGE = % OF INTERNET USERS ÷ % OF WORLD POPULATION

  5. Bandwidth Review • Bit (b) = a unit of information, 0 or 1 • 10 bits can represent 1024 different messages • 20 bits represent > 1 million • 30 bits > 1 billion messages • The bandwidth of a communication channel = number of bits per second it transmits • All channels have limited bandwidth • One byte (B) = 8 bits (an octet) • Transmitting 1 MB at 56K bps takes 143 sec. • 1 GB = gigabyte takes 40 hours • at 7Mbps 19 minutes; at 1 Gbps takes 8 seconds) • Latency = delay from first bit transmitted to first received

  23. Network Topologies • More than two computers causes complications: • Each machine on a network must have a unique address • If machine 2 sends a message to machine 4, what tells 1, 3 and 5 to ignore it, but 4 to listen? • Ethernet protocol 1 2 4 5 3 LAN = LOCAL AREA NETWORK LAN BUS TOPOLOGY

  24. Routers Routing Machine 2.16 Machine 1.35 wants to send a packet to Machine 3.249. Routers determine the path the packet will take. Machine 3.249 B A Machine 1.35 Router A can send the packet either way 4.1 5.9 NETWORK 4 & IT’S ROUTER NUMBER OF ROUTES

  27. Packet Switching (TCP/IP) TCP = TRANSMISSION CONTROL PROTOCOL (Breaks messages into packets and reassembles them) IP = INTERNET PROTOCOL (Moves packets around the Internet) SOURCE: J. DECEMBER

  28. Packet Switching (TCP/IP)

  29. IP Addresses • Machines on the Internet need an addressing scheme (or couldn’t receive packets!) • Each machine has a 32-bit address assigned by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). • In the U.S., American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN) • In Europe, Réseaux IP Européens (RIPE) • Addresses are written in dotted decimal notation: 128 . 2 . 218 . 2 10000000 00000010 11011010 00000010 • Current max number of IP addresses = 232 ~ 4,000,000,000

  30. IPv6 • Increases # of IP addresses from 232≈ 4 billion to 2128≈ 1039 • Designed for faster routing • Supports Quality of Service (QoS), packet priorities • Allows multiple streams to the same IP address, e.g. audio, video, HTML

  31. Domain Names • IP addresses are inconvenient to remember 128.2.218.2 v. euro.ecom.cmu.edu (fully qualified) • Domain names are alphanumeric aliases for IP addresses. They form a tree structure of FQDNs: ROOT .GOV .COM .MIL .NET .EDU .ORG .IT CMU PITT MIT AMAZON MCKINSEY YAHOO 208.216.182.15 207.237.113.94 GSIA CS ECOM HEINZ WWW YEN EURO DOLLAR PESO 128.2.218.4 128.2.218.2 128.2.16.175
