This book presents recent advances in network protocols and architectures for Cloud computing systems, integrating propositions of the last 5 years as well as legacy solutions. The propositions are essentially standard solutions or solutions under standardization, but the books does also include major achievements from research projects and outline also proprietary solutions positioning and comparing them to the others. The technical topics include Cloud network overlay protocols, data-center topology architectures, storage area networks, traffic engineering algorithms.
