Dynamic Monitoring of Data Center Slices

Slicing is a move towards segmentation of resources and deployment of NFV for the purpose of enhanced services and applications on globally shared resources. The slicing approach in this paper considers Data Center slicing and the VIM on-demand model. We focus on the monitoring of Data Center slices, showing what is needed from the monitoring perspective and how the monitoring should be done. The proposed monitoring approach is validated on a platform that supports the on-demand creation of lightweight VIM instances.
