Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Topology input is used to identify a set of data flows as between a set of virtual machines (VMs), as well as one or more network services for one or more of the data flows. A determination is made as to a minimal number of network service virtual machines (NSVMs) for use in providing the one or more network services. An arrangement is determined for server resources and network resources of the data center network on which a virtual network topology is provided for the tenant, including the set of VMs and the number of NSVMs.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method for providing a virtual network topology in a data center network, the method being implemented by one or more processors and comprising: receiving topology input from a tenant of the data center network for the virtual network topology, the topology input including data flow information, corresponding to data flows indicating requirements of the virtual network topology, wherein the data flows include source and destination VMs, bandwidth requireme…
