Modern datacenters are constructed with multirooted tree topologies and support multiple service queues per switch port. They support a wide variety of applications and services with stringent performance needs and conflicting requirements. To meet these requirements, recent works focus on load balancing or ECN marking approaches. Though existing load-balancing approaches...
Clos-based network topologies have been deployed in production data center networks to provide multiple path alternatives between the pairs of network hosts. Production data centers operate under varying traffic dynamics and topological asymmetry. Therefore, a good load balancing scheme must adapt to network conditions and dynamics in real-time and intelligently...
Recently, Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) has been leveraged by most Datacenter Network (DCN) protocols for congestion control to achieve high throughput and low latency. However, the majority of these approaches assume that each switch port has one queue while current industry trends towards having multiple queues per switch port. To...
