KPIs and Benchmarks Sample Clauses

KPIs and Benchmarks. ‌ The benchmark for all the KPIs is the same and can be either traffic traces from data centres (if they become available), or on-line client-server video streaming application. 1. Network improvement in terms of bandwidth/latency for different flow types (Mice vs. Elephants). Usually will be obtained by the used application/benchmark, or by employing synthetic network probe along with the application/benchmark. 2. Number of used optical circuits. Depends on the path calculation by the physical observer 3. Utilization of the used optical circuits Can be obtained by sFlow statistics from the TU/e switch which are directly connected to the optical switch. 4. Time to establish optical circuit path (benchmark: manual config.) Time breakdown to: i. Physical observer time to calculate/reuse an optical circuit - reported by the physical observer. ii. Time to compute the optical path by the ODL - reported by ▇▇▇. iii. Time to provision the path - reported by ODL.‌

KPIs and Benchmarks. We will measure the total latency to migrate a Virtual Machine. The components of this latency: - Time to halt the VM - Time to copy from source to destination node - Time to restart the VM By measuring all the components separately we will see what proportion of the time of a VM migration is dependent on the network and therefore the maximum amount of performance improvement that can be gained by increased network performance. These measurements will be taken with and without circuit cut through enabled. We should vary: - the size of the VM(s) - the network congestion level - the complexity of the virtual network (number for flows required to implement it) This will allows us to better understand under what circumstance VM migration benefits from optical circuit switching.

  • Service Level Expectations Without limiting any other requirements of the Agreement, the Service Provider shall meet or exceed the following standards, policies, and guidelines:

  • Benchmarks 2.1 Benchmarks set forth the overall scope and level of responsibility and the typical duties by which jobs or positions are distinguished and classified under the Classification System. 2.2 Benchmarks also set forth the range or level of qualifications appropriate for a position classified to the level of the benchmark(s). 2.3 Benchmarks do not describe jobs or positions. They are used to classify a wide diversity of jobs by identifying the scope and level of responsibilities.

  • Service Levels All service level requirements will be set forth in Exhibit A (“▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇ Referral Service Level Requirements”). Recipient ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to adhere, and encourage Recipient Agent’s adherence, with the version of the ▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇ Referral Service Level Requirements in effect at the time ▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇ identifies the Referral to Recipient Broker/Agent.
