Jeff and Chris, 

Can we have 10 minutes slot in the IETF 101 RTGwg session to discuss 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) and leased lines?  
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-dm-net2cloud-problem-statement/

The goals of the discussion is to
-  bring some awareness to the problems space
-  see whether there is a need or interests for enhancements to existing protocols or whether a new protocol is necessary to solve them

The draft also describes common approaches deployed by enterprises for interconnection of workloads & applications hosted in Cloud DCs with on-premises DCs & branch offices. 

Thanks,  Linda Dunbar

Abstract:
   This document describes common approaches deployed by enterprises
   for interconnection of workloads & applications hosted in Cloud DCs
   with 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) and
   leased lines.

   Current operational problems in the field are examined to determine
   whether there is a need for enhancements to existing protocols or
   whether a new protocol is necessary to solve them.

Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
