Summary

Big-data-driven networking (bDDN) is a type of future network framework that collects big data from networks and applications, and generates big data intelligence based on the big data; it then provides big data intelligence to facilitate smarter and autonomous network management, operation, control, optimization and security, etc.

Supplement 50 to ITU-T Y-series Recommendations presents a set of use cases and several scenarios supported by bDDN including: 1) network management; 2) network active maintenance; 3) network optimization; 4) network operation; 5) network attack prevention; 6) root cause tracking of quality of service (QoS); 7) quality of experience (QoE) improvement; 8) resource management; 9) network planning and design; 10) traffic engineering; 11) cross-layer design; 12) content delivery network (CDN); 13) network address translation (NAT) device detection; 14) bDDN in future networks; 15) bDDN in data centre networks; and 16) bDDN in industrial Internet.
