  1. IP Networks as a Service Sergi Figuerola Project Coordinator (Sergi.figuerola@i2cat.net) 8th e-Infrastructure Concertation meeting 4th - 5th November, 2010. CERN, Geneva

  2. Mantychore @ a Glance • Mantychore legacy • 2006 – Manticore • 2007 – Manticore II • (also with RedIris, Cisco and Juniper) • 2010 – Mantychore FP7 • ICT-2010 Call 5 • 1.2.3 – Virtual Research Communities • Total Project Cost: 1.629.851 € • EC contribution: 1.499.538 € • Start date: October 2010 • Duration: 30 months • Partners composition • 1 Research Center • 2 NREN • 3 users • 1 commercial operator

  3. Our Challenge VISION • Provide a software implementation and tools for providing and managing routers and IP networks as services. MISION • By means of : • Infrastructure Provisioning: • Marketplace of Physical/logical routers and IP networks • IP Network as a Service: • Creation and configuration of IP networks • L1 and L2 integration • Providing the service to 3 virtual research communities • Mantychore will be deployed over the infrastructure of 2 NRENS and 3 initial users.

  5. Objective 1: Deploy an operational IP Network as a Service Enable HEAnet and NORDUnet to provide IP Network Services to their users through the MANTYCHORE tools, enhancing their service portfolio; thus providing virtual research communities with a useful service that can improve their research activities and optimize the efficiency of use of e-Infrastructures. Mantychore allow third parties to configure network addressing, internal routing, firewalls and external routing policies. Objective 2: Integrated Layer 1-3 services Refine and expand the MANTYCHORE services provided by means of integrating, with the IaaSFramework, solutions for optical (Argia) and Ethernet/MPLS networks (Ether); thus being able to provide integrated services at levels 1-3 to the research community.

  6. Objective 3: Marketplace for resource trading Innovate in the business model used in services based on IaaS, establishing a marketplace where all Infrastructure Providers can publish their available resources with their usage conditions (SLA, price), and all customers can automatically negotiate the SLAs getting the best resource combination for their needs. Objective 4: Carbon-neutral e-Infrastructures Use MANTYCHORE services to contribute to the research performed in the GreenStar Network (GSN) project to enable carbon-neutral infrastructures. Objective 5: Commercial Exploitation • Evaluate the likehood of MANTYCHORE services (open source based) in a commercial telco environment and elaborate a business plan focused on this service for telco operators.
