    Exploiting the power of multiplicity: a holistic survey of network-layer multipath

    The Internet is inherently a multipath network: For an underlying network with only a single path, connecting various nodes would have been debilitatingly fragile. Unfortunately, traditional Internet technologies have been designed around the restrictive assumption of a single working path between a source and a destination. The lack of native multipath support constrains network performance even as the underlying network is richly connected and has redundant multiple paths. Computer networks can exploit the power of multiplicity, through which a diverse collection of paths is resource pooled as a single resource, to unlock the inherent redundancy of the Internet. This opens up a new vista of opportunities, promising increased throughput (through concurrent usage of multiple paths) and increased reliability and fault tolerance (through the use of multiple paths in backup/redundant arrangements). There are many emerging trends in networking that signify that the Internet's future will be multipath, including the use of multipath technology in data center computing; the ready availability of multiple heterogeneous radio interfaces in wireless (such as Wi-Fi and cellular) in wireless devices; ubiquity of mobile devices that are multihomed with heterogeneous access networks; and the development and standardization of multipath transport protocols such as multipath TCP. The aim of this paper is to provide a comprehensive survey of the literature on network-layer multipath solutions. We will present a detailed investigation of two important design issues, namely, the control plane problem of how to compute and select the routes and the data plane problem of how to split the flow on the computed paths. The main contribution of this paper is a systematic articulation of the main design issues in network-layer multipath routing along with a broad-ranging survey of the vast literature on network-layer multipathing. We also highlight open issues and identify directions for future work

    The main topic of this paper is to identify problems and present an overview of Data Center environments. To identify problems and present the overviews of business data environments and the cost of usable data center for small-midsize business organization based type of requirements on the design is one of the most important concepts of managing cost. To maximized data center efficiency administrators implement Blade Server, Virtualization, SOA, and other recent technologies. The project process will focus on most leased data centers with provided space rather than specific applications that trend the way of design, and eliminating the significant impact of multiple physical storage devices. Data Centers are complex systems with a variety of technologies that require constantly evolving skills and knowledge that range from routing and switching to load balancing and security. This project will include research, collecting sources, discussing the issues associated with network attacks Data Centers, and reviewing the other key areas related to data center development will be cover the way server availability will describes how to design a highly available infrastructure, and describes how a load balancing device can monitor the availability of applications and servers

    Performance Issues of Heterogeneous Hadoop Clusters in Cloud Computing

    Nowadays most of the cloud applications process large amount of data to provide the desired results. Data volumes to be processed by cloud applications are growing much faster than computing power. This growth demands new strategies for processing and analyzing information. Dealing with large data volumes requires two things: 1) Inexpensive, reliable storagee 2) New tools for analyzing unstructured and structured data. Hadoop is a powerful open source software platform that addresses both of these problems. The current Hadoop implementation assumes that computing nodes in a cluster are homogeneous in nature. Hadoop lacks performance in heterogeneous clusters where the nodes have different computing capacity. In this paper we address the issues that affect the performance of hadoop in eterogeneous clusters and also provided some guidelines on how to overcome these bottlenecks

    A Literature Survey on Resource Management Techniques, Issues and Challenges in Cloud Computing

    Cloud computing is a large scale distributed computing which provides on demand services for clients. Cloud Clients use web browsers, mobile apps, thin clients, or terminal emulators to request and control their cloud resources at any time and anywhere through the network. As many companies are shifting their data to cloud and as many people are being aware of the advantages of storing data to cloud, there is increasing number of cloud computing infrastructure and large amount of data which lead to the complexity management for cloud providers. We surveyed the state-of-the-art resource management techniques for IaaS (infrastructure as a service) in cloud computing. Then we put forward different major issues in the deployment of the cloud infrastructure in order to avoid poor service delivery in cloud computing
