Description
Recent advances in optical networks led to redefine interconnections as slices of optical spectrum. To allow the research networking community to make use of these new technologies, the spectrum service team in GN4-3-WP7T2 have completed a Spectrum Service definition, created a reference model and evaluated optical modelling tools. In 2021 GÉANT ran pilots on several links. In 2022 the team plans to run a multi-provider spectrum service which aims to carry real big-science traffic between data-centers. This presentation will give an insight in to how the GÉANT community is building a common and open optical network landscape in Europe.
