RDMA容器云架构下面向应用感知的网络资源管理与优化机制研究

With the emergence and development of modern networking applications including artificial intelligence, big data processing and microservices, it has become an inevitable trend to facilitate applications’ demands of high elasticity and network performance based on RDMA-enabled container cloud. However, the characteristic of thin middleware in the architecture of RDMA-enabled container cloud has brought significant challenges to network resource management. To tackle this challenge, this project, addressing three characteristics of modern networking applications, namely, topology heterogeneity, dynamic nature and performance sensitivity, conducts the research on the application aware network resource management and optimization for RDMA-enabled container cloud from the aspects of container orchestration optimization, network control optimization and data transferring optimization, respectively. First, a smart container orchestration mechanism based on the end-to-end model is investigated. Second, a flexible dynamic resource driven bandwidth adjustment mechanism is proposed. Third, an adaptive parameter tuning mechanism is further researched to satisfy the diverse network performance preference of applications. Based on the above research, a network resource management prototype system will be implemented to verify the theoretical results and provide a general, fast and efficient platform for modern networking applications.
