is a professor of information and communication sciences at the Center for Information and Communication Sciences at Ball State University He conducts research into high-bandwidth networking and the storage and transmission of multimedia objects Dr Groom has conducted research into multiprotocol label switching (MPLS)-driven fiber networks, intelligent agents, network-based data deployment, and firewall-based security He has conducted a number of national research projects using surveys, focus groups, personal interviews, and student research culminating in two of his published books Furthermore, he has conducted many specialized statistical research studies for AT&T, McDonalds Corp., and Nth Dimension Software In addition to his graduate level networking, information systems, network security, and advanced database courses at Ball State, Dr Groom annually conducts a graduate research methods course for Ball State graduate students where he teaches many of the methods he has employed in his own research His research has been conducted both in industry and at the university, studying both big data problems as well as smaller situations Dr Groom has presented networking and data processing courses to major American corporations, including PricewaterhouseCoopers, IBM, AT&T and its various units, Motorola, Digital Equipment Corp (now HP), Unisys, Ford Motor, Hillenbran Industries, and McDonalds AT&T has twice sponsored Dr Groom to present advanced data processing and networking courses to the graduate students and faculty of Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications (BUPT) and the People’s Republic of China Government Office of Telecommunications He was honored with having two of his papers presented at the Plenary Session of the 1996 International Conference on Information Infrastructure (ICII’96) in Beijing, China, and another paper presented as the Plenary Session for the Broadband 2000 conference in Tokyo Furthermore, in 1996, 1998, and 2006, Dr Groom presented papers on ATM networking, Multimedia, and Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) at the leading French Graduate School of Telecommunications (Ecole Nationale Superiore des Telecommunications [ENST]) while consulting with research professors and reviewing the PhD dissertation research of current candidates ix 214  ◾  Enterprise Cloud Computing for Non-Engineers Ashburn Virginia and San Jose California This also fit well with the strategy to launch in the east region, and eventually expand to the West where they could take advantage of AWS GovCloud for government sector compliance needs Equinix has a history of building carrier neutral data centers that provide prime locations for public and private interconnections The Ashburn location, for example, is famous for having become the de facto replacement of the original Mae East—one of the largest Internet peering points on the planet that at one point was thought to carry more than half of the traffic traversing the Internet The Equinix Cloud Exchange offering is designed to provide interconnects between network service providers (NSP) and cloud providers, much the same way as their Ethernet Exchange facilitated Internet peering High speed and highly redundant Ethernet fabric connects over 600 carriers across a dozen data centers on the Ashburn campus This provided Ontario Systems with a key element of the network design, a unifying component of the network architecture that supports a multi-cloud solution, as well as private connections from clients in a carrier-neutral facility The team ended 2015 with agreements in place to support the Alpha and Beta phases through 2016 Multi-Cloud—From Theory to Deployment Ontario Systems spent the first quarter of 2016 refining the deployment automation for their stack in AWS, and developing and testing the deep integration with their telephony partner By the end of the quarter, Ontario had deployed their switch stack in Ashburn DC10 and provisioned two 10 Gbps ports to the Cloud Exchange Ontario’s telephony provider, Ampersand, had their Cloud Exchange ports delivered from SoftLayer as well, so they were then able to build the virtual circuits (VCs), decommission the test virtual private networks, and start traversing the Cloud Exchange to exercise the final state ‘production plumbing.’ The results have been very impressive During several months of Alpha testing over the network and the exchange, they observed very consistent ms ping times with absolutely no loss The fact that a multi-cloud solution that lives within different cloud infrastructure providers still has latency rivaling the best internal LAN is an outcome that was better than expected Subsequent testing with the first private circuit customers connecting to the solution has also shown solid low latency results as well Other Upsides for the Enterprise A connection to the Cloud Exchange offers flexibility as well as other long-term benefits to Ontario customers Besides Ontario Systems, there are many other cloud service providers that present on the exchange, including: AWS, SoftLayer, Google, Ontario Cloud  ◾  215 Microsoft Azure, Office 365, Oracle Cloud, Rackspace, and others A client may order their Cloud Exchange connection to support connectivity to Ontario’s cloud and contact platform, but they may also leverage that same connection to provide private high-speed connectivity to other cloud service providers In the future, Ontario believes it will be common for their clients to have their own AWS account for long term storage of their voice recordings, which are a component of all customer interactions required for compliance Many clients may also leverage the connection to include direct access to Office 365 for their corporate use or other advanced cloud services This connection is not exclusive to any one provider and the Ashburn endpoint can be virtually connected to many cloud providers via software networking VCs—it is quite literally ‘multi-cloud.’ Best of Breed Partners Ontario Systems made some good partner decisions for the launch of their V2 contact platform They are positioned well for the future and have a solid strategy for their products as well as their cloud infrastructure, architecture, and vision They may be a little ‘ahead of the curve’ in some ways, but are confident in the strategy The only issue reported so far, is that the NSPs are very slow to change their ordering and provisioning systems, and seem to be viewing the Exchange as a “product” decision more than an interconnect solution As more and more carriers understand the footprint, Ontario Systems is confident the NSP carrier options will continue to grow Index A
