Scale-out architectures supporting flexible, incremental scalability are common for
computing and storage. However, the network remains the last bastion of the traditional …

Designing a cost-effective network topology for data centers that can deliver sufficient
bandwidth and consistent latency performance to a large number of servers has been an …

Today's data centers may contain tens of thousands of computers with significant aggregate
bandwidth requirements. The network architecture typically consists of a tree of routing and …

Applications hosted in today's data centers suffer from internal fragmentation of resources,
rigidity, and bandwidth constraints imposed by the architecture of the network connecting the …

To be agile and cost effective, data centers must allow dynamic resource allocation across
large server pools. In particular, the data center network should provide a simple flat …

Data centers have a crucial role in current Internet architecture supporting content-centric
networking. State-of-the-art data centers have different architectures like fat-tree, DCell, or …

This paper presents BCube, a new network architecture specifically designed for shipping-
container based, modular data centers. At the core of the BCube architecture is its server …

Providers of" Infrastructure-as-a-Service" need datacenter networks that support multi-
tenancy, scale, and ease of operation, at low cost. Most existing network architectures …

The growth of cloud-based services is mainly supported by the core networking
infrastructures of large-scale data centers, while the scalability of these services is …

Datacenter workloads demand high computational capabilities, flexibility, power efficiency,
and low cost. It is challenging to improve all of these factors simultaneously. To advance …
