Semi-Oblivious Reconfigurable Datacenter Networks
Reconfigurable datacenter networks use fast optical circuit switches to provide high bandwidths at low cost, therefore emerging as a compelling alternative to packet switching. These switches offer micro- and nano-second reconfiguration, and reacting to demand at this time scale is infeasible. Proposed designs have therefore largely been oblivious, supporting arbitrary traffic patterns. However, this imposes a fundamental latency-throughput tradeoff that significantly limits the benefits of these switches.
