Amis: Programmable Privacy-Preserving Network Measurement For Analysis And Troubleshooting

Network measurement and monitoring are instrumental to network operations, planning and troubleshooting. However, increasing line rates (100+Gbps), changing measurement targets and metrics, privacy concerns, and policy differences across multiple R&E network domains have introduced tremendous challenges in operating such high-speed heterogeneous networks, understanding the traffic patterns, providing for resource optimization, and locating and resolving network issues. There is strong demand for a flexible, high-performance measurement instrument that can empower network operators to achieve the versatile objectives of effective network management and resource provisioning. In this demonstration, we present AMIS: Advanced Measurement Instrument and Services to achieve programmable, flow-granularity and event-driven network measurement, sustain scalable line rates, to meet evolving measurement objectives and to derive knowledge for network advancement.
