Abstract: |
Data Centers (DCs)
are experiencing a tremendous growth in the number of hosted servers.
Aggregate bandwidth requirement is a major bottleneck to data center
performance. New Data Center Network (DCN) architectures are proposed to
handle different challenges faced by current DCN architecture. In this paper
we have implemented and simulated two promising DCN architectural models,
namely switch-based and hybrid models, and compared their effectiveness by
monitoring the network throughputs and average packet latencies. The
presented analysis may be a background for the further studies on the
simulation and implementation of the DCN customized topologies, and
customized addressing protocols in the large-scale data centers. |
