Daniel,

What does service link mean in your sentence? Can you give an example?
“it's determined at CAN ingress through "routing" of the service identification 
which actually could also be used to establish the service link at layer 4…”

Thank you very much,

Linda

Hi Peng,

as far as issue 36 is concerned, here's  a distinctive perspecitve I would like 
to bring up CAN architecture in terms of its potential benefits against the 
ongoing solutions such as DNS & GSLB which would inherently bring extra 
messages and thus latency. When it comes to service instance selection process, 
it's done by DNS & GSLB or its equivalent node, while it's determined at CAN 
ingress through "routing" of the service identification which actually could 
also be used to establish the service link at layer 4, therefore the service 
link would remain intact when the service end node shifts through CAN routing 
policies.

in case of service node changing in service transaction, CAN routing logically 
plays the role of DNS & GSLB and there would be no extra messages incurred 
other than extra state brought in CAN nodes when necessary.



Best regards,

Daniel Huang

Dear All,

Here are the responses to issues #4 #15 #36, which are related to the 
requirements of mobility, latency and flow affinity. Any comments are welcome.

#4 Do the mobility issues and associated protocols are also in scope? There are 
scenarios where routing alone would not be sufficient. 
<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FCAN-IETF%2FCAN-BoF-ietf113%2Fissues%2F4&data=05%7C01%7Clinda.dunbar%40futurewei.com%7Ca66a9eac1ee4463cde9208da536be384%7C0fee8ff2a3b240189c753a1d5591fedc%7C1%7C1%7C637914020125846352%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=bb9tSVIyqMVQ0JCOE3luJgWtNAHL8VSAZo41ZDjvXCA%3D&reserved=0>
Might need routing+mobility solutions. From the routing side, the service 
affinity are needed.
Supporting the affinity to a particular service instance while moving as a 
client will need a solution (which will depend on the realization of such 
affinity).
Supporting mobility across service instances, i.e. the moving from one service 
instance to another mid-way of an ongoing transaction, will need extra 
precaution, likely as a solution at the application layer but possibly 
supported through the CAN infrastructure.

#15 It seems impossible to satisfy that requirement simultaneously with the 
latency requirement. 
<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FCAN-IETF%2FCAN-BoF-ietf113%2Fissues%2F15&data=05%7C01%7Clinda.dunbar%40futurewei.com%7Ca66a9eac1ee4463cde9208da536be384%7C0fee8ff2a3b240189c753a1d5591fedc%7C1%7C1%7C637914020125846352%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=gWxyMTjhnyADc6ys72guboNj99Hl3mgSsLg4hc9SoSs%3D&reserved=0>
Fulfilling the session persistence (or affinity) requirement together with any 
latency requirement may indeed be a challenge, e.g., when long running sessions 
occur across varying compute conditions at smaller timescale. In this case, CAN 
may support session mobility from the possibly overloaded serving service 
instance to a new, better suitable, one (see also issue #4) during the ongoing 
session to mitigate the otherwise negative impact on latency. The methods with 
which CAN may support this are in scope of CAN’s proposed work

#36 Need to understand if there are requirement to avoid extra messages or 1ms 
of 
latency.<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FCAN-IETF%2FCAN-BoF-ietf113%2Fissues%2F36&data=05%7C01%7Clinda.dunbar%40futurewei.com%7Ca66a9eac1ee4463cde9208da536be384%7C0fee8ff2a3b240189c753a1d5591fedc%7C1%7C1%7C637914020125846352%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=W9MwFABIVwU8tX%2FgjQ4Bc5q37PoYUUAvxeo3LlHELxM%3D&reserved=0>
Extra messages, such as incurred in off-path systems like DNS, lead to possibly 
significant latency, particularly when incurred frequently in scenarios where 
possible service endpoints may need to change frequently. The use cases 
attempted to cover this. Generally, avoiding extra messages in any solution CAN 
may develop is a standard requirements for any engineering solution, following 
the simplification principle.

Any detailed discussion is expected to be only within dyncast mailing list. You

them(https://github.com/CAN-IETF/CAN-BoF-ietf113/issues<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FCAN-IETF%2FCAN-BoF-ietf113%2Fissues&data=05%7C01%7Clinda.dunbar%40futurewei.com%7Ca66a9eac1ee4463cde9208da536be384%7C0fee8ff2a3b240189c753a1d5591fedc%7C1%7C1%7C637914020125846352%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=P9%2FIiiN3etrv3C5XjDiFRYgMw6CCLVw%2F0Y%2FQU0w%2Bgpc%3D&reserved=0>).

CAN BoF proponents:

Many thanks for creating the CAN BoF issues tracking  in the Github:

I went through the issues captured in the Github and characterized them into 
groups. Some issues can be lumped together for the discussion. There are quite 
a few issues related to the requirements, which need to be clarified.

Best Regards, Linda


Issues associated with Applications vs. Underlay networks:

  *   Consider not to load underlay network with application details. #35
  *   We have multiple upper layer application. Do we have additional needs for 
routing(e.g. WG?) or we are using those applications and won't need such new 
WG? #30
  *   It needs application information too, so it can't just make a decision at 
the network layer. #23
  *   This is not striked as a routing problem; it's all service discovery that 
can be done in higher layers. #21
  *   3GPP and URSP solve this based on UPF selection. It uses both endpoint + 
application. #20
  *   One overlay plane per application. Resources/metric specific to the 
plane. #19
  *   How does the application layer or the transport layer learn the network 
status to steering traffic? #16

Need more clear requirements for CAN (to be addressed by 
draft-liu-dyncast-ps-usecases):

  *   Need to understand if three are requirement to avoid extra messages or 
1ms of latency #36
  *   Regarding the flow affinity, is it from network perspective or from 
application/computation perspective? #33
  *   How to effectively compute paths? Shall we put CPUs into account? #32
  *   What happens when the user moves? If so we also need to move application 
context. #25
  *   It can only move the services around as fast as it can update the routing 
plane. which comes back to the point about service discovery (waiting for 
convergence/distribution as opposed to just updating the SD server) #24
  *   Whether the interests of the organization deploying the application and 
the organization providing the network connectivity are aligned. Google doesn't 
worry about this because they are both. #17

     *   The question is more what the scope and semantic of information is 
that will need to cross organizational boundaries. This needs further study, in 
particular when assuming stakeholder division between service and network 
provider.

  *   It seems impossible to satisfy that requirement simultaneously with the 
latency requirement. #15
  *   It wasn't clear that how hard of a requirement session persistence is. #13

     *   A session usually creates ephemeral state. If execution changes from 
one (e.g., virtualized) service instance to another, state/context needs 
transfer to another. Such required transfer of state/context makes it desirable 
to have session persistence (or instance affinity) as the default, removing the 
need for explicit context transfer, while also supporting an explicit 
state/context transfer (e.g., when metrics change significantly).

  *   Should it select UPF based on the application? Steering is done per user? 
or per application? #9
  *   This seems to assume conventional non-distributed applications just 
running at the edge. what about modern frameworks like Sapphire? and Ray? #7

     *   It would be good to understand the multi-site requirements of such 
framework, which I have understood to mainly run in single DCs.

  *   Relation to 3GPP UPF #6
  *   Relation to ALTO #5
  *   Do the mobility issues and associated protocols are also in scope? There 
are scenarios where routing alone would not be sufficient. #4
  *   What is the position in the edge location regarding to UPF? #3
  *   Is there some sort of authorization model so that an edge can indicate 
whether or not it will provide compute services? #2
  *   What is CNC and the relationship with CAN #1


Measurement of the Computing Resources (to be addressed by 
draft-du-computing-resource-representation):

  *   It is hard to use existing work to measure the computation, but we can 
optimize the latency through the performance monitoring. We have 
performance/measurement matrix over there. #34
  *   Clarifications on the computing resource, its requirements and 
characteristics would be helpful. #27
  *   Each application may have a different definition of "resources" these 
then have to be boiled down into a single topology Network Aware Computing 
(NAC! :) does scale #14
  *   Is computing resource measurable? #10<null>

     *   It is, and how to use the measurement would be solution related. See 
IFIP Networking 2022 paper on how to simply expose “computing capability” and 
achieve better steering with such simple measure.

  *   Why compute resource is different with other resources? #8
  *
Load Balance based solutions:

  *   The point is that we need a standardized LB protocol #18
  *   The LB as part of the application itself is superior (part of the 
distributed application itself is to obtain and keep updating the "best" 
unicast location to use). #22
  *   If there is anything missing from current lbs that would prevent their 
use as-is? other than there is for market reasons no interop standard between 
different lbs? #12
  *   For the load balance, should it learn the network’s status? #11
  *
Dyncast based Solution issues:

  *   For Dyncast, when the time is short, is it possible for the router to 
decide the routing? It is too fast. #31
  *   Is dyncast proposed to encapsulate? #29
  *   Will CAN dyncast impact each and every router? How to avoid loops? #28
  *   What's the assumed scale of a D-router? 10 ^ 6 sessions? 100^ 8? What's 
the assumed update rate? !Gb? 1Tb? #26
