摘要
In the current data center networks, the flow size distribution is not uniform and the transmission performance requirements of elephant flows and mice flows are different. To address this issue, a software-defined hybrid routing (SHR) scheme was proposed. SHR differentiate data flows by statistical calculations. The elephant flows utilize the adaptive routing algorithm while the mice flows use the oblivious routing algorithm. SHR extends the OpenFlow scheme by offloading some basic functions such as flow statistical detection and mice flow forwarding to switches to reduce the switch-controller interaction overhead. Performance evaluations of SHR were carried out using the fat-tree network topology. Results show that SHR can effectively increase network throughput and reduce the flow dropping rate as well as packet delay compared with the traditional ECMP algorithm. © 2016, Editorial Board of Journal on Communications.
