摘要:

自动化网络管理策略对于满足物联网等创新型实时与数据密集型应用的需求已变得至关重要。然而,要满足这类应用中持续增长且波动的数据与服务需求,比以往任何时候都更需要一种高效且可扩展的网络资源管理方法。该方法应能实现服务的自动化配置,同时激励在整个边缘到云连续体中推广的高能效资源使用。本文首次在能源感知环境中实现了基于无服务器函数的模块化软件定义网络(Software-Defined Networks)概念。通过采用函数即服务(Function as a Service),该方法支持按需部署网络功能,凭借精细的资源配置粒度实现成本降低。文中提出了一个用于估算服务交付时间和功耗的分析模型,还给出了一个开源原型实现,并通过大量实验评估对其提供支撑。实验不仅证明了所提方法的实际适用性,还显示其在能效方面有显著提升。

英文摘要:

Automatic network management strategies have become paramount for meeting the needs of innovative real-time and data-intensive applications, such as in the Internet of Things. However, meeting the ever-growing and fluctuating demands for data and services in such applications requires more than ever an efficient and scalable network resource management approach. Such approach should enable the automated provisioning of services while incentivising energy-efficient resource usage that expands throughout the edge-to-cloud continuum. This paper is the first to realise the concept of modular Software-Defined Networks based on serverless functions in an energy-aware environment. By adopting Function as a Service, the approach enables on-demand deployment of network functions, resulting in cost reduction through fine resource provisioning granularity. An analytical model is presented to approximate the service delivery time and power consumption, as well as an open-source prototype implementation supported by an extensive experimental evaluation. The experiments demonstrate not only the practical applicability of the proposed approach but significant improvement in terms of energy efficiency.
