collected, the more advanced big data analysis becomes, and the more experience network intelligence
evolved, the more network problems can be predicted and the less intrinsic delay inserted between detection
and settlement.
10.3.4 Capabilities of network restructuring and optimization aspect

Based on the big data from the network and subsequent analyzation and processing, the network
optimization and restructuring can be achieved. It is notable that the action of network optimization and
restructuring can be performed by either network operators or the network itself.

11 The interface capabilities of big-data-driven networking

11.1 The interfaces among planes of big-data-driven networking

11.1.1 The interfaces between big data plane and network plane

Figure 11-1 depicts the interfaces between the big data plane and network plane. The big data plane gets
network traffic data from the network plane via the iBN interface. After data collection and analysis, the big
data plane provides a knowledge insight service to the network plane also via the iBN interface.

11.1.2 The interfaces between big data plane and management plane
Figure 11-2 depicts the interfaces between the big data plane and management plane. The big data plane
gets management data from the management plane via the iBM interface. After data collection and analysis,
the big data plane provides a knowledge insight service to the management plane also via the iBM interface.

11.1.3 The interfaces between management plane and network plane

Figure 11-3 depicts the interfaces between the management plane and the network plane. The network plane
provides the management information for the management plane via the iNM interface. The management
plane manages the network resource in the network plane also via the iNM interface.
