Who benefits from perfSONAR MDM?
Target users of this service are primarily members of PERTs and NREN NOCs who support end users of IP connectivity services provided over the GÉANT Service Area and who need to view performance data or perform tests (e.g. for event planning, research or operational needs).
However, the ultimate beneficiary of the service is the end user. By providing the multi-domain monitoring and diagnostics infrastructure, NRENs can help their network performance teams and NOCs more immediately address performance issues for end users.
NRENs that make the MDM monitoring and diagnostics infrastructure available to their network teams ensure they can collaborate with other NRENs’ performance and NOC teams, and more swiftly identify, prevent and solve users’ network issues.
