Abstract:
The increase in complexity of modern networks makes it challenging to
deploy new services and to keep networks up to date whilst
maintaining stability and availability for critical business
services. This is a major challenge that network operators (service
providers, SME, etc) face today. The operators aim of streamlining
both operations and the deployment of new services, is being met by
increasingly relying on (1) software abstractions to simplify the
design and configuration of monitoring and control operations and (2)
the use of programmatic control over the configuration and operation
of such networks.
In this context, providing network operators with a generic policy-
based management model that can be used to express policies on top
of arbitrary configuration data models is essential.
In particular, SUPA addresses the needs of operators and application
developers to use a generic policy-based management model for
defining and representing multiple types of policy rules.
