Constant development of network infrastructure and services requires also continuous development of advanced network monitoring techniques, tools and services. The focus in the network monitoring development and service provisioning has changed from the initial device and technology-oriented solutions towards the service-driven view, keeping at the same time end-to-end, user-centric and multi-domain aspects as key requirements. The session includes current and future work of development activities in the area of network and service monitoring and performance verification, including those from research institutions and GÉANT4-2: the development of Network Management as a Service, Performance Verification Monitoring, perfSONAR, Performance Measurement Platform, CFM and WiFiMon, and community-oriented initiatives, such as Multi-Domain Monitoring Consultancy and Expertise service, eduPERT and Special Interest Group for Performance Monitoring and Verification.
