Data Centers offer various application services to end-users such as 
video gaming, cloud computing and others. As the data centers used to 
provide application services are distributed geographically around a 
network many decisions made in the control and management of 
application services such as where to instantiate another service 
instance or to which server a new client is assigned, should be made 
jointly with knowledge of the underlying network resources that are 
available and with knowledge of the application resources (e.g., 
server load conditions.  

Currently such decisions are made with very little or no information 
concerning the underlying network used to deliver those services. 
Hence such decisions are inherently sub-optimal. In addition the lack 
of network awareness may result in not meeting the end-user 
application service objectives.
