Emerging cloud applications such as real-time data backup, remote desktop, server clustering, etc. require not only more traffic being delivered between datacenters, but also dedicated and application-specific virtual optical network (VON) services to support each application's QoS and SLA level. On the other hand, another requirement is to support end-to-end network service provisioning across multiple VONs comprising different transport (e.g. Flexi-grid DWDM OCS, OPS, etc) and control plane technologies (e.g., centralized OpenFlow or distributed GMPLS).
