Performance Analysis of Demand-Oblivious and Demand-Aware Optical Datacenter Network Designs
share
This paper presents a performance analysis of the design space of optical datacenter networks, including both demand-oblivious (static or dynamic) and demand-aware networks. We formally show that the number of specific optical switch types which should be used in an optimized datacenter network, depends on the traffic pattern, and in particular, the flow size distribution.
