Abstract
Systems and methods for bandwidth optimization in a network include monitoring a state of the network, wherein the network is a connection-oriented network; utilizing analytics based on the monitoring to predict trends, create triggers, and determine updates to policy associated with the network; and performing bandwidth optimization on one or more connections based on the trends, the triggers, and the policy, wherein each of the one or more connections has one or more of a Wave Division Multiplexing (WDM) component, a Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) component, and a packet component, and wherein the bandwidth optimization finds the one or more connections with inefficient resource usages and moves the one or more connections, in one or more of time and space, to more optimal paths.
