The Multi-Service Exchange (MSX) platform facilitates an environment where the advanced network functions are extended throughout campus over a Software Defined Networking (SDN) solution, e.g., OpenFlow, de facto creating a dynamic Science DMZ driven entirely by science application workflows. Its architecture decouples the campus network operational mission from science data flows dynamically. MSX makes the protocols and interfaces of the wide-area networks, such as Internet2's ION, DYNES, perfSONAR, and others interoperable with the campus SDN solutions such as OpenFlow. The MSX platform also provides an option for data landing solutions, facilitated by a wide array of campus-facing NAS and SAN storage interfaces. The platform is also made physically accessible to campus researches for manually initiated, scheduled data transport.However, the main focus of this effort is to integrate the advanced network functions with individual science applications, algorithms and workflows. By concentrating predominantly on science applications code, the MSX software development team helps domain scientists extricate themselves from the need to maintain either a deep network-related knowledge or specialized staff. The integration of the selected science applications with advanced network technologies lets them treat any network function as a resource - an integral part of their algorithms and workflows.By architecting the Multi Service Exchange in the most flexible, adaptable way, MSX will establish a platform applicable to any campus, providing them with a point from which to develop new (or terminate existing) services and make them available to on-campus and off-campus researchers.

多服务交换（MSX）平台促进了一个环境，在该环境中，高级网络功能通过软件定义网络（SDN）解决方案扩展到整个园区，例如，OpenFlow，事实上创建了一个完全由科学应用工作流驱动的动态科学DMZ。它的体系结构从科学数据流的动态角度来描述校园网的业务使命。MSX使广域网的协议和接口，如Internet 2的ION、DYNES、perfSONAR等，与园区SDN解决方案（如OpenFlow）互操作。 MSX平台还提供了一个数据登陆解决方案的选项，由一系列面向校园的NAS和SAN存储接口提供便利。该平台也可以物理访问校园研究手动启动，预定的数据传输。然而，这项工作的主要重点是将先进的网络功能与个人的科学应用，算法和工作流程相结合。通过主要专注于科学应用程序代码，MSX软件开发团队帮助领域科学家摆脱维护深度网络相关知识或专业人员的需要。通过将选定的科学应用与先进的网络技术相结合，使他们能够将任何网络功能视为资源-其算法和工作流程的组成部分。通过以最灵活，适应性最强的方式构建多服务交换，MSX将建立一个适用于任何校园的平台，为他们提供一个点，从那里开发新的（或终止现有的）服务，并使他们提供给校内和校外的研究人员。
