| Title: |
A Lightspeed Data Center Network |
| Abstract: |
Emerging data center applications demand low latency and high bandwidth networks - similar to those found in high-performance computers. This talk walks through a thought experiment of what a data center network using best practices HPC network design would look like. It shows that a “dragonfly network” using global adaptive routing and speculative reservations for congestion avoidance can offer network latencies that are dominated by the time-of-flight over the network cables. Because of reduced buffering and better channel utilization such a network would have lower component cost than a conventional network with comparable performance. |
