Cloud DCs). It examines some of the approaches interconnecting cloud DCs with enterprises' on-premises DCs \& branch offices. This document also describes some of the (network) problems that many enterprises face when they have workloads \& applications \& data split among hybrid data centers, especially for those enterprises with multiple sites that are already interconnected by VPNs (e.g., MPLS L2VPN/L3VPN). Current operational problems are examined to determine whether there is a need to improve existing protocols or whether a new protocol is necessary to solve them.}, }
