Recently the <\/span>ICCLab<\/span><\/a>, ZHAW acquired a KTI project, ACeN<\/a> – Apache <\/span>CloudStack<\/span><\/a>\u00a0for NFV. Cloudstack is one of the front running Infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) platforms for cloud environment. Leveraging <\/span>Network-function virtualization<\/span><\/a>\u00a0(NFV) as the concept of replacing dedicated network hardware with a software providing the same network functions, increases network capabilities such as service availability in the cloud. This project has now commenced and the interaction between partners\u00a0<\/span>Citrix<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Exoscale<\/span><\/a>\u00a0and <\/span>ZHAW<\/a>. Everyone is highly engaged already<\/span>\u00a0and from our \u00a0perspective we’re very excited to about this work.<\/span><\/p>\n

The ACeN<\/a> project will deliver services and prototypes based on the NFV standard and Apache CloudStack. A novel hybrid load-balancing service (HLBS) will be created and and key NFV demonstrators will be prototyped. It is hybrid as it combines IP address management and load balancing into one service\/function. All will follow a common architectural approach, on common technology. This work will leverage and can enable access to <\/span>a market worth up to $2.4 Billion by 2018<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The majority of outputs from the project will be made open source (under ASL 2.0), including the hybrid load balancing service. Much of the work in ACeN is exploiting the research work carried out in Mobile Cloud Networking<\/a> and also the Hurtle<\/a> orchestration framework. <\/span><\/p>\n

From our lab’s perspective, this project demonstrates concretely our research approach of bringing foundational research and open source impact through an innovation transfer process to Swiss SMEs. <\/span><\/p>\n

Stay tuned for more updates!<\/span><\/p>\n
