16 Installing AMAC to PMAC mappings Slide 16

17 Proxy based Address Resolution (ARP) Slide 17

18 Routing on Fattree (PortLand) Encode the topology information into PMAC, and routing based on PMAC addresses – Each host sees its own AMAC and remote host’s PMAC – Ingress switch does AMAC -> PMAC rewriting for src host – Egress switch does PMAC -> AMAC mapping for dst host – Longest prefix match routing on destination PMAC Slide 18

20 Bcube: multi-paths for one-to-one traffic The diameter of a BCube k is k+1 There are k+1 parallel paths between any two servers in a BCube k 000102 03 101112 13 202122 23 303132 33 20

21 MAC addr Bcube addr 000102 03 101112 13 202122 23 303132 33 BCube0 BCube1 MAC030 MAC131 MAC232 MAC333 port Switch MAC table MAC200 MAC211 MAC222 MAC233 port Switch MAC table BCube: Server centric and source routing MAC23MAC03 2003 data MAC23MAC03 2003 data dstsrc MAC20MAC23 2003 data MAC20MAC23 2003 data Server-centric BCube - Switches never connect to other switches and only act as L2 crossbars - Servers control routing, load balancing, fault-tolerance 21

22 Routing on Bcube Encode the topology information into Bcube IDs, and routing based on Bcube IDs – Source derives the routing paths based on Src-Dst Bcube IDs – Source writes the whole path information into packet headers – Forwarding is based on path information embedded in packet heads – Bcube switches are dumb, intelligence is within servers

23 Summary on DCN Routings VL2, Dcell, CamCube, Jellyfish… Topology-dependent – Customized to specific topology, fully explore topology characteristic – Constrained, not generalized to generic DCNs – Some of them not deployable in commodity switches SDN/OpenFlow – Flexible, explicit routing control – Scalability, OpenFlow entries: 1K – 4K – Heavy-weight, active paths swapping – Error-prone 23

25 TLA MLA Worker Nodes ……… Partition/Aggregate Application Structure 25 Picasso “Everything you can imagine is real.”“Bad artists copy. Good artists steal.” “It is your work in life that is the ultimate seduction.“ “The chief enemy of creativity is good sense.“ “Inspiration does exist, but it must find you working.” “I'd like to live as a poor man with lots of money.“ “Art is a lie that makes us realize the truth. “Computers are useless. They can only give you answers.” 1. 2. 3. ….. 1. Art is a lie… 2. The chief… 3. ….. 1. 2. Art is a lie… 3. ….. Art is… Picasso Time is money  Strict deadlines (SLAs) Missed deadline  Lower quality result Deadline = 250ms Deadline = 50ms Deadline = 10ms

26 Generality of Partition/Aggregate The foundation for many large-scale web applications. – Web search, Social network composition, Ad selection, etc. Example: Facebook Partition/Aggregate ~ Multiget – Aggregators: Web Servers – Workers: Memcached Servers 26 Memcached Servers Internet Web Servers Memcached Protocol

27 Workloads Partition/Aggregate [~2KB] (Query) Short messages [50KB-1MB] ( C oordination, Control state) Large flows [1MB-50MB] ( D ata update) 27 Delay-sensitive Throughput-sensitive

28 Impairments Incast Queue Buildup Buffer Pressure 28

29 Incast 29 TCP timeout Worker 1 Worker 2 Worker 3 Worker 4 Aggregator RTO min = 300 ms Synchronized mice collide.  Caused by Partition/Aggregate.

30 Queue Buildup 30 Sender 1 Sender 2 Receiver Big flows buildup queues.  Increased latency for short flows. Measurements in Bing cluster  For 90% packets: RTT < 1ms  For 10% packets: 1ms < RTT < 15ms

31 Data Center Transport Requirements 31 1. High Burst Tolerance –Incast due to Partition/Aggregate is common 2. Low Latency –Short flows, queries 3. High Throughput –Continuous data updates, large file transfers 4. Meet flow deadlines –Some flows carry deadlines (e.g., search), flows miss their deadlines will not be useful The challenge is to achieve these together.

32 Tension Between Requirements 32 High Burst Tolerance High Throughput Low Latency DCTCP Deep Buffers:  Queuing Delays Increase Latency Shallow Buffers:  Bad for Bursts & Throughput Objective: Low Queue Occupancy & High Throughput

33 Many Recent DCN Transport Designs Reduce RTO min 2009 Data Center TCP (DCTCP) 2010 Deadline-Aware –D–D 3 (centralized) 2011, and D 2 (decentralized) 2012 Preemptive Flow Scheduling (PQD) 2012 pFabric 2013 33

34 Review: The TCP/ECN Control Loop 34 Sender 1 Sender 2 Receiver ECN Mark (1 bit) ECN = Explicit Congestion Notification

35 DCTCP: two key ideas 1.React in proportion to the extent of congestion, not its presence. Reduces variance in sending rates, lowering queuing requirements. 2.Mark based on instantaneous queue length. Fast feedback to better deal with bursts. 18 ECN MarksTCPDCTCP 1 0 1 1 1 Cut window by 50%Cut window by 40% 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1Cut window by 50%Cut window by 5%

36 Data Center TCP Algorithm Switch side: – Mark packets when Queue Length > K. 19 Sender side: – Maintain running average of fraction of packets marked (α). In each RTT:  Adaptive window decreases: – Note: decrease factor between 1 and 2. B K Mark Don’t Mark

37 Why DCTCP Works 1.High Burst Tolerance Large buffer headroom → bursts fit. Aggressive marking → sources react before packets are dropped. 2. Low Latency Small buffer occupancies → low queuing delay. 3. High Throughput ECN averaging → smooth rate adjustments, low variance. 21
