Nextworks participated in the SC'08 exhibition event by successfully demonstrating the numerous capabilities and potentials of the Grid-GMPLS (G2MPLS) Network Control Plane.
Nextworks' researchers and other Phosphorus partners proved the innovative seamless and one-step setup of Grid Network Services (GNS) by integrating a distributed storage grid application (Phosphorus DDSS) with the G2MPLS Control Plane running on the optical Phosphorus pan-European testbed. A numerous and very interested international audience of leading vendors, renowned researchers and executives had the experience of many dynamic transfers of large media contents in a remotely connected storage grid between UK (Univ. Essex labs) and Poland (PSNC labs). The underlying G2MPLS Control Plane implemented dynamically the anycasting connectivity service (i.e. with the dynamic selection of the optimal storage sink by Control Plane) on a DWDM optical infrastructure and GÉANT2 (http://www.geant2.net).
