Abstract

With the increasing popularity of Software-defined networks (SDN), TCAM memory of switches can be directly accessed by a publish/subscribe middleware to perform filtering operations at low latency. This way two important requirements for a publish/subscribe middleware can be fulfilled: namely bandwidth efficiency and line-rate performance in forwarding messages between producers and consumers. Nevertheless, it is challenging to sustain line-rate performance in the presence of dynamic changes in the interest of producers and consumers. In this paper, we propose and evaluate the PLEROMA middleware to realize publish/subscribe at line-rate and bandwidth efficiently in SDN. PLEROMA offers methods to efficiently reconfigure a deployed topology in the presence of dynamic subscriptions and advertisements. Furthermore, PLEROMA ensures interoperability and independent reconfiguration of multiple controlled SDN networks.
