Abstract
Based on the analysis of data centre (DC) traffic pattern, we introduced a holistic software-defined optical DC solution. Architecture-on-Demand based hybrid optical switched (OPS/OCS) data centre network (DCN) fabric is introduced, which is able to realise different inter-And intra-cluster configurations and dynamically support diverse traffic in the DC. The optical DCN is controlled and managed by a software-defined networking (SDN) enabled control plane to achieve high programmability. Moreover, virtual data centre (VDC) composition is developed as an application of such software-defined optical DC to create VDC slices for different tenants.
