Abstract:
Computing-Aware Traffic Steering (CATS) is a traffic engineering
approach that optimizes the steering of traffic to a service instance
by considering the dynamic state of computing and network resources.
To enable such decisions, CATS components exchange metrics that
describe resource conditions affecting service instance selection.
This document focuses on compute and communication metrics for CATS
and defines a hierarchical abstraction of these metrics to improve
interoperability, scalability, and operational simplicity. It does
not aim to standardize raw infrastructure (Level 0) metrics; instead,
it specifies higher-level representations that can be derived from
raw measurements using aggregation and normalization functions.
