Some embodiments provide a method for a network management and control system that manages a virtual infrastructure deployed across a set of datacenters. The method receives a definition of an application to be deployed in the virtual infrastructure. The application definition specifies (i) a set of tiers of the application and (ii) a set of requirements for deploying the application. Based on the application definition, the method automatically defines a logical network architecture for connecting data compute nodes (DCNs) that implement the application tiers in the set of datacenters. The method configures a set of forwarding elements in the set of datacenters to implement the logical network architecture.
For a network management and control system that manages a virtual infrastructure deployed across a set of datacenters, a method comprising:
A non-transitory machine-readable medium storing a network manager program which when executed by at least one processing unit manages a virtual infrastructure deployed across a set of datacenters, the network manager program comprising sets of instructions for:
