Modern network architectures are changing the way highly interactive applications are designed, deployed, and delivered. The three fundamental functions of networking – compute, store, and transport are converging and are now device agnostic. Further, virtual machine technology allows a single device to perform multiple roles within the architecture including supervisory functions, operations, and security.
Within the modern simulation architecture, software defined networking efficiently utilizes architecture resources as workload assignment is dynamically adjusted ensuring delivery of the quality of service required to achieve the realism demanded as thousands; tens of thousands; or hundreds of thousands of entities interact via physics-based models.
In large-scale simulation environments, assuring the moment-by-moment integrity of the architecture and authenticity of participants through dynamic multi-epoch interaction cycles is a must. Both are possible with technologies that continuously monitor application performance and connection authenticity. These rationalization and telemetry functions act as checks and balances verifying that interactive engagement pairings are accurate validating the integrity of the simulation.
Data center and hybrid cloud architectures capable of supporting these highly distributed operations efficiently, effectively and securely are available for implementation will be presented.
