A multidimensional colored packing approach for network slicing with dedicated protection

Résumé

Network Function Virtualization (NFV) enables the virtualization of core-business network functions on top of a NFV infrastructure. NFV has gained an increasing attention in the telecommunication field these last few years. Virtual network functions (VNFs) can be represented by a set of virtual network function components (VNFCs). These VNFCs are typically designed with a redundancy scheme and need to be deployed against failures of, e.g., compute servers. However, such deployment must respect a particular resiliency mechanism for protection purposes. Therefore, choosing an efficient mapping of VNFCs to the compute servers is a challenging problem in the optimization of the software-defined, virtualization-based next generation of networks. In this paper, we model the problem of reliable VNFCs placement under anti-affinity constraints using several optimization techniques. A novel approach based on an extension of bin packing is proposed. We perform a comprehensive evaluation in terms of performance under realworld ISP networks along with synthetic traces. We show that our methods can calculate rapidly efficient solutions for large instances.
