The Programmable Cloud Network: Delay Measurement Application

To keep place with these advances and demands, cloud service providers are developing a growing range of cloud-based services, including infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), Software as a service (SaaS) and others. In this article we will be talking about Network as a Service (NaaS). We build a prototype of a Software-Defined Networking (SDN) application based on NaaS paradigm. This application proactively detects issues related to delay and eventually reroute monitored path over another path, which allow providing real time automatic traffic engineering.
