As network traffic and conditions change, the load on different instances of control plane
changes. To ensure various control applications can operate continuously and efficiently, we …

The number of multi-controller datacenters is in-creasing with the increasing size of software-
defined networking (SDN) datacenters. The performance of an SDN datacenter depends …

Balancing the workload among distributed SDN controllers plays a critical role for both the
network performance and the control plane scalability. Several distributed SDN controller …

In Software Defined Networks (SDN), the controller is considered as a critical network
element with respect to the overall operation of the network. The inherent centralized nature …

Load balancing among multiple controllers is a critical issue in the software-defined
networking (SDN), since traffic dynamics prevent control-plane loads from being evenly …

Distributed controllers in software-defined networking (SDN) become a promising approach
because of their scalable and reliable deployments in current SDN environments. Since the …

Load migration is essential in any distributed SDN control platform due to natural load
imbalance and dynamic nature of input traffic. Existing solutions focus on migrating a single …

Recent control plane solutions in a software-defined network (SDN) setting assume
physically distributed but logically centralized control instances: a distributed control plane …
