Re: [alto] New ALTO use cases & the upcoming IETF meeting

[Leeyoung <[e-mail]>]

Hi all,

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-dhody-pce-cso-enabled-path-computation-03.txt

I just wanted to bring your attention to this draft where ALTO is implied between APP and NET (Cross Stratum) in the context of 
an extended PCE architecture. ALTO is envisioned in this draft as a mechanism to collect network resource information to the application
for their scheduling operation in an effort to select an optimal data center from a set of candidates. 

This draft addresses the need for underlying network resource information (such as application-specific virtual network topology) 
that can be made available to APP via ALTO interface. 

Your comments are appreciated. 

Regards,
Dhruv and Young

Subject: [alto] New ALTO use cases & the upcoming IETF meeting

Hi all,

I have seen a number of new ALTO drafts for LMAP, I2RS, etc and also the 
wish to discuss a rechartering of the ALTO WG.

I still do not see the WG to be ready for any rechartering discussion, 
as we should first finish up our current chartered items.

However, I can see the utility to discuss new ideas on what to do with 
ALTO, but outside the ALTO session at the upcoming IETF meeting in Orlando.

My proposal would be to do a side meeting, i.e., we meet sometimes in 
the evening over a drink and discuss the new drafts/use cases and how to 
progress ALTO.

But, do not rely on my to organize such a side meeting, i.e., somebody 
else should take the stab in organizing this.

   Martin
