This paper tries to make middle-box the 1st class citizen in data center environment.
As the network configuration in a data center is getting more complex, making sure all packets going through middle box is getting harder. This paper introduces a programmable switch to apply middle-box policy. This will introduce some overhead at switch level, but operational benefit will be large enough to justify it. As operational cost of data center is becoming increasingly significant, this kind effort to make it simple & effective will get more attention.
