Scheduled Work: The OT&E whois and other application servers will now update to code matching production versions with refreshed database data. Querying whois.ote.arin.net will not respond until this maintenance has completed. Expected Duration: 6 hours Updates: Following the scheduled maintenance there will be a follow up message indicating completion.

We are working towards an approach to make interconnection agreements between networks more dynamic. The current approach for establishing agreements is cumbersome, typically requiring lengthy discussions. To accommodate the expected growth of traffic demands, network operators need to over-provision. Even so, operators miss the ability to quickly respond when facing unforeseen traffic demands, because agreements have static characteristics and changes could take days or weeks to be implemented. Dynamic agreements offer many opportunities. For example, consider acquiring extra "bandwidth as a service" that is available on demand just when one needs it, similarly to how one might spin up extra VMs in the cloud to handle high loads. We are interested in collecting some anecdotal evidence that dynamic agreements could solve real-world problems. Has any member of the forum faced any scenario where the kind of dynamism described above could be helpful? Many thanks for your inputs, -- Pedro de Botelho Marcos PhD Student Computer Networks Research Group Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul - UFRGS -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
