THIRD-PARTY ORCHESTRATION MODULE FOR A CLOUD EXCHANGE PROGRAMMABLE NETWORK PLATFORM

摘要

In some examples, a programmable network platform comprises a third-party orchestration module configured to communicate with a cloud service provider (CSP) orchestration system; and a centralized network controller configured to receive a service request that specifies a cloud service applied by a CSP network operated by a CSP on a network of a cloud exchange operated by a cloud exchange provider. The CNC is further configured to, in response to the service request, invoke the third-party orchestration module to communicate with the CSP orchestration system to request that the CSP orchestrate the cloud service on the network of the cloud exchange. The CNC provisions the network of the cloud exchange within a data center to deliver the cloud service from the CSP network attached to the network of the cloud exchange to a customer network attached to the network of the cloud exchange.

1. A programmable network platform comprising:
at least one programmable processor; a third-party orchestration module configured for execution by the at least one programmable processor to communicate with a cloud service provider orchestration system; and a centralized network controller configured for execution by the at least one programmable processor to receive a service request that specifies a cloud service applied by a cloud service provider network operated by a cloud service provider on a network of a cloud exchange operated by a cloud exchange provider, wherein the centralized network controller is further configured to, in response to the service request, invoke the third-party orchestration module to communicate with the cloud service provider orchestration system to request that the cloud service provider orchestrate the cloud service on the network of the cloud exchange, and wherein the centralized network controller provisions the network of the cloud exchange within a data center to deliver the cloud service from the cloud service provider network attached to the network of the cloud exchange to a customer network attached to the network of the cloud exchange.
