Abstract
A backbone service exposes network parameters, such as a minimum available bandwidth, latency, or packet loss, in a tunnel path between any source-destination pairs. The network parameters can be mapped as a function of time so that service teams can schedule when to use the backbone with minimized interruption to other users. The data generated by the backbone service can be transmitted, stored or displayed for informational purposes to provide insights to service teams on how to better leverage the network and create awareness of the current status of the backbone. The backbone service can be extended to provide bandwidth brokerage for controlling traffic distribution in the network. The backbone service can further provide triggered messages that inform service teams about failures in the network that could reduce the available bandwidth. The messages can further target users of affected source-destination pairs.
