Outline • Data center networking • Design issues • Resource sharing • Asynchronous computation model
Conventional Data Center Networks Hierarchical tree structure High speed core switches are expensive Hard to scale
Data Center Network Design • Commodity Hardware • Server • Switch • Scalable • Fat tree, Dcell, Bcube, VL2, ….
Dpillar Structure • Devices • All servers have dual-port • All switches have n-port • Server and switch columns • k columns • Server naming • (col, label), label • Connecting rule • Servers in and , their labels differ at only
Design Issues • Inexpensive • Scale to a large number of servers • Fault Tolerant Routing • Load Balancing
Network Resource Sharing within Data Center • Virtualization of CPU (Xen), memory (DiffEng), storage (SAN) • Network resource can become bottleneck • Sorting and shuffling of MapReduce • Sync among tasks slows down computation • Backup of VMs • Bandwidth sharing • Granularity: point-to-point or group based • Fair share: centralized vs. distributed • Privacy: public cloud vs. private cloud
MapReduce Model • Map: generate key value pairs • Shuffle and sort • Reduce: aggregate values for a key from multiple sources
Iterative Computations Youtube video suggestion BFS PageRank Clustering Pattern Recognition
Synchronous Model • Ease of MapReduce implementation • However, • Overhead of sync operation, sorting • Slow convergence, waste of CPU, network resources • Many iterative computations can be performed asynchronously • PageRank, shorest path, adsorption, link proximity estimation, belief propagation….

Conclusions • Network design within data center • Design based on commodity hardware • Network resources sharing • Asynchronous computation framework • Reduced bandwidth requirement • Efficient computation
An Example of Outage planet02.csc.ncsu.edu experiences packet loss on July 30, 2005
Causes of Outages • Most lost packets are caused by routing outages
Towards 5 Nines Reliability • Exploiting redundancy on Internet Path • Multiple routing instances to ensure consistency • Exploiting multiple sites within a cloud • Site selection through route monitoring • Deliver through private WAN
Packet Loss due to Routing Failures • Failover events: 76% packets lost • Recovery events: 26% packets lost Failover Recovery
Round-trip Delay Failover Recovery Failover events have significant impact on packet round-trip delays. In the worst case, packet round-trip delays can be more than 900msec.
Reordering during Failover Events The number of reordered packets is small. However, the offset of reordered packets is large. Larger buffer sizes for real-time applications.
