Abstract

In this paper, we present and evaluate the design and implementation of two distributed, fault-tolerant services that provide the directory and topology information required to encode randomized source routes with in-packet Bloom filters. By deploying an army of Rack Managers acting as OpenFlow controllers, the proposed architecture promises scalability, performance and fault-tolerance. We show that packet forwarding itself may become a cloud internal service implemented by leveraging cloud application best practices such as distributed key-value storage systems. Moreover, we contribute to demystifying the argument that the centralized controller model of OpenFlow networks is prone to a single point of failure and show that direct network controllers can be physically distributed, yielding thereby a sweet intermediate approach to networking between fully distributed and centralized.
