Original Abstract Submitted
This disclosure describes techniques and mechanisms for providing hybrid cloud services for enterprise fabric. The techniques include enhancing an on-demand protocol (e.g., such as LISP) and allowing simplified security and/or firewall service insertion for datacenter servers providing those services. Accordingly, the techniques described herein provide hybrid cloud services that work in disaggregated, distributed, and consistent way, while avoiding complex datacenter network devices (e.g., such running overlay on TOR), replacing and moving the functionality to on demand protocol enabled servers, which intelligently receive the required mappings as well as registers and publishes the service information to intelligently interact with the network.
