Abstract

The demands for the network across data centers are becoming more and more intense recently. However, there are three problems need to be solved, i.e., the ever-increasing number of actual or virtual machines demands, effectively manage these different machines and maintain the effectiveness. A scalable network across data centers is a very important technology to solve them. This paper proposes a new software defined network (SDN) based scalable network framework and its significant characteristic is to build a scalable layer 2/3 network that across data centers over the internet by using SDN's technologies. Our framework has high performances because: 1) The operation of encapsulating and unpacking packets is not necessary; 2) Routing paths can be pre-computed; 3) Traffic engineering to be implemented.
