Abstract

PlanetLab is a global overlay network for developing and accessing broad-coverage network services. Our goal is to grow to 1000 geographically distributed nodes, connected by a diverse collection of links. PlanetLab allows multiple services to run concurrently and continuously, each in its own slice of PlanetLab. This paper describes our initial implementation of PlanetLab, including the mechanisms used to implement virtualization, and the collection of core services used to manage PlanetLab.
