TL;DR
This paper proposes a strategy to bootstrap real-world deployment of future Internet architectures by incentivizing early adoption through high availability guarantees, demonstrated via simulations and real-world tests.
Contribution
It introduces an availability device enabling customers to adopt future Internet architectures without infrastructure modifications, facilitating practical deployment.
Findings
High availability can be achieved with few early adopters.
The availability device effectively bridges existing infrastructure to future architectures.
Simulation and real-world tests confirm the approach's feasibility.
Abstract
The past decade has seen many proposals for future Internet architectures. Most of these proposals require substantial changes to the current networking infrastructure and end-user devices, resulting in a failure to move from theory to real-world deployment. This paper describes one possible strategy for bootstrapping the initial deployment of future Internet architectures by focusing on providing high availability as an incentive for early adopters. Through large-scale simulation and real-world implementation, we show that with only a small number of adopting ISPs, customers can obtain high availability guarantees. We discuss design, implementation, and evaluation of an availability device that allows customers to bridge into the future Internet architecture without modifications to their existing infrastructure.
