Internet2 Priorities 2004

1. Internet2 Priorities 2004 Internet2 Industry Strategy Council Douglas Van Houweling

2. Fundamental Questions • What does Internet2 community (and the rest of the world) require from the Internet and its applications? • What should the Internet2 community do to address those requirements? • What specific steps should we take to move forward?

3. Strategic Foci • Address the advanced networking needs and interests of the research & education community • Provide leadership in the evolution of the global Internet • Leverage strategic relationships among academia, industry and government • Catalyze activities that cannot be accomplished by individual organizations • Implement a systems approach towards a scalable and vertically integrated advanced networking infrastructure • Focus on financially feasible, affordable, and deployable technologies and solutions

4. Applications End-to-end Performance Security Motivate Enable Middleware Services Networks Internet2 Today (and Tomorrow)

5. 2004 Priorities • Engage with the NSF Cyberinfrastructure Initiative • Establish security initiatives which enable Internet2 applications and leverage Internet2 capabilities • Ensure availability of production infrastructure and the migration of activities or initiatives from development to production for the Internet2 community • Enhance Internet2’s role as a leader in advanced networking

6. 2004 Priority Allocation 2004 Priorities $17,965,242 14% 32% 6% Cyberinfrastructure Initiative Security Initiative Production Infrastructure 48% Leadership in Advanced Networking

9. Cyberinfrastructure (NSF & DoE) • International Connections • End-to-end Performance • NSF Middleware Initiative • Cyber Trust • Hybrid Optical and Packet Infrastructure (HOPI) • With our members – • Organizing and leading the community to acquire the resources required to sustain momentum • Overall leadership from Gary Bachula

10. International Connections • Now multiple NSF agreements • Different regions of the world • Different types of connectivity & research • Also various uncoordinated donated infrastructure • Our international partners could work more effectively if they had a coordinated point of contact • Working with our members to prepare a coordinated proposal

11. End-to-end Performance • Department of Energy solicitation asks for work that is remarkably similar to the PIPES (End-to-End Performance Initiative Performance Environment System) • Working with members on an integrated proposal

12. Federated Authentication • Scalable, decentralized infrastructure • Critical to a broad range of initiatives • Being adopted and implemented • Industry • International • Middleware is an increasingly enabling element • Examples: Shibboleth, InCommon Federation

13. Security • Require network security approaches that: • Minimally compromise network performance and allow applications requiring advanced network services to function • Sustain, in so far as possible, the end-to-end nature of the Internet architecture • Network security, host software, and middleware become inter-dependent • Overall leadership from Ken Klingenstein • Security at Line Speed (SALSA) steering group • Additional staff on assignment from university and corporate members

14. Production Infrastructure • Internet2 Commons • InCommon/InQueue middleware federation support • PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) with Dartmouth • Abilene • Voice and Integrated Communications Initiative (VICI) • End-to-End Performance systems • Overall leadership from Cheryl Munn-Fremon and Steve Corbato

15. Applications Priorities • Engage key disciplines • Laurie Burns • Support strategic demonstrations • Laurie Burns/Mike LaHaye • Move maturing applications to production status • Cheryl Munn-Fremon • Scout for and engage innovative applications under development • TBA • Overall leadership from DVH

16. Leadership in Advanced Networking • Hybrid Optical and Packet Infrastructure (HOPI) • Integrated Middleware & Security • End-to-End Performance • Internet Architecture Assessment • Strategic response to the challenges facing the Internet • Joint effort starting with MIT and expanding • David Clark leadership

17. Requires Internet2 to Operate in Pasteur’s Quadrant Pasteur Yes Bohr Focus on New Knowledge Creation? No Edison No Yes Focus on Application?

18. Core Values • Address the advanced networking needs and interests of the research & education community • Provide leadership in the evolution of the global Internet • Leverage strategic relationships among academia, industry and government • Catalyze activities that cannot be accomplished by individual organizations • Implement a systems approach towards a scalable and vertically integrated advanced networking infrastructure

19. Industry Strategy Council Role • Founding resolution: • The Industry Strategy Council (ISC) shall advise the Trustees on matters related to strategic issues concerning advanced networking and applications development from the industry perspective and to help focus the technology transfer aspects of the Internet2 initiatives. • Unless otherwise directed, the ISC will meet twice a year. The Chair of ISC and the President/CEO of Internet2 will jointly develop the agenda for each meeting. • Following each meeting, the ISC will forward to the Board a written report summarizing issues considered, conclusions reached and any recommendations the ISC may have for initiation or revision of Internet2 programs, priorities and policies relating to the subject area of ISC.
