虽然域间路由的创新已经停滞了十多年，但互联网交换点（IXP）正在巩固其作为经济上有利的互连点的角色，以减少路径延迟并交换不断增加的流量。因此，IXP似乎是促进网络创新和评估SDN好处的自然场所，SDN是最近的技术趋势，已经推动了数据中心网络的创新。在本文中，我们将全面概述SDN在IXP中的用例，这些用例利用IXP的上级Vantage引入负载均衡和DDoS缓解等高级功能。我们通过分析来自最大的IXP之一的真实数据来讨论SDN解决方案的好处。我们还利用对IXP运营的深入了解，不仅为会员，也为运营商制定福利。
While innovation in inter-domain routing has remained stagnant for over a decade, Internet exchange points (IXPs) are consolidating their role as economically advantageous interconnection points for reducing path latencies and exchanging ever increasing amounts of traffic. As such, IXPs appear as a natural place to foster network innovation and assess the benefits of SDN, a recent technological trend that has already boosted innovation within data center networks. In this article, we give a comprehensive overview of use cases for SDN at IXPs, which leverage the superior vantage point of an IXP to introduce advanced features like load balancing and DDoS mitigation. We discuss the benefits of SDN solutions by analyzing real-world data from one of the largest IXPs. We also leverage insights into IXP operations to shape benefits not only for members but also for operators.
