PANAPI – Path Aware Networking API.

The PANAPI (Path Aware Networking Application Programming Interface Design and Implementation) project will design a sophisticated host-based network-path selection engine on top of the SCION network architecture, and provide it as an open-source implementation of the abstract next-generation transport service API currently being drafted in the IETF TAPS Working Group, PANAPI PANAPI will provide a powerful and extensible framework for automatic path property measurements, path quality evaluation, and optimized path selection, complete with automatic load balancing and failure recovery in a PAN environment, all hidden behind upcoming standard application-facing API abstractions.
