Abstract
The migration of DataCenters into Metropolitan Area Networks creates new challenges which include the need for rapid service provisioning and recovery and new, cost-effective, connectivity schemes. Here we propose and demonstrate a truly dynamic transportation platform tailored for a metro network. The novelty of the proposed architecture is that the dynamic data-plane exploits available commercial PON technology while the dynamic control-plane is SDN-enabled using OpenFlow/Netconf. The dynamic operation of the platform in several interesting scenarios is demonstrated on an experimental test-bed.
