Title
Optical interconnection networks in data centers: recent trends and future challenges.
Abstract
Warehouse-scale data center operators need much-higher-bandwidth intra-data center networks (DCNs) to sustain the increase of network traffic due to cloud computing and other emerging web applications. Current DCNs based on commodity switches require excessive amounts of power to face this traffic increase. Optical intra-DCN interconnection networks have recently emerged as a promising solution th...
