Caso de desarrollo de proyectos en la Rede Nacional de Ensino e Pesquisa, RNP

Brief Overview of the RNP

• RNP – Rede Nacional de Ensino e Pesquisa• Brazilian NREN – National Research and Education Network

– Created as a project in September 1989 by the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MCTI),

– Became a non-profit institution in 1999

• Serves more than 800 campi– Over 130 public universities, more than 800 campi– Over 30 public and private research centers.

RNP national backbone

• RNP national backbone – Ipê network– Uses links

from Telecom Companies

– Connects PoP’s in the state capitals + RNP’s metropolitan networks

Ipê = IP =

International Links

• 20 Gbps to EUA 10 G (RNP) + 10 G (ANSP)

Through RedCLARA• 2,5 G to Europe (GÉANT) • 10 G to Argentina• 1 G to Miami

Introduction

• Motivation:– to complement its network service, in 2002 began to develop its own

advanced user services

• How:– University research groups propose projects, and some of these

proposals are then developed with financial support and close tracking by RNP

• Impact:– a growing portfolio of service offerings – closer relations with the research community.– RNP documented and designed a R&D Process

• Also adopt the model to the development of network services, where requirements are determined by RNP.

• RedClara adopt a similar process to develop services in Latin America

Introduction

• R&D RNP Programmes Examples:

– Working Group - RNP Programme

– RNP-induced WGs

– WGs at RedCLARA

WG-RNP programme – Objectives

• Develop innovation projects, with the aim of developing new products and services for RNP.

• Themes related to applications, middleware and networks.

• Assess how these new products and services can be deployed in the production network.

Launched in 2002.

WG-RNP programme – Methodology

• Projects are proposed by research groups.

• Selection is carried out through an open call for proposals:– See: http://www.rnp.br/editais/gt_2012-2013.html (in Portuguese)

• Both initial selection and annual evaluation are carried out by committees composed of :– RNP staff members and – External representatives from the research community

• SBC & LARC

• These committees draw up a classification of the projects for approval by the RNP Management Board

WG-RNP programme – Methodology

WG-RNP programme – Results

The WGs produce 2 kinds of results:

• New service: included in the RNP Services Catalogue;

• New product: becomes one of RNP’s “products on the shelf” and may be used by RNP itself, or by its clients (client institutions, government ministries, etc);

WGs at RedCLARA

WGs at RedCLARA

• WGs created in 2005

• RNP participates intensively in thetechnical activities of the RedCLARA community since its inception

• RNP WG coordinators have often participated as instructors in half-yearly RedCLARA training activities

• RedCLARA has also adopted its own style of WGs, mainly involving the technical representatives from each member NREN, in the folowing themes: Videoconferencing, Measurements, Routing, Security, IPv6, Multicast, VoIP

• In 2009 and 2011, calls were made to invite researchers from the RedCLARA community to help introduce new services in the member NRENs

Some RedCLARA WGs results

• WG Measurements created a pilot measurement network using perfSONAR among some Latin American NRENs, EUA and Europe

• RedCLARA now belongs to the eduroam community based on the work of the WG Eduroam/Mobility

• The pilot service PIT-VOIP provides peering between VoIP networks

• The expansion of IPv6 services in Latin American academic networks was accomplished through the dissemination carried out by WG IPv6

… and others.

CONCLUSIONS

Conclusion

• RNP does not maintain an in-house team of developers• We prefer to outsource such activities to the research

community, which has embraced the opportunities provided.

• These activities are managed by the RNP R&D directorate• The result has been beneficial to RNP and its users:

– Enabling us to increase our service offerings in many areas– Permitting international collaboration to ensure interoperation of

many of these services– Enhancing our interaction with the Brazilian research

community in Computer Networks and Distributed Systems, – To keep this interaction with research community we organize our

annual RNP Workshop in collocation with the annual Brazilian Computer Networks Symposium (SBRC) since 2003.
