摘要
In recent years, Data Center Networks (DCN) have become a very popular platform for hosting various online services and applications, such as e-commerce, social networking, large-scale computing, and web searching due to their cost-effective and efficient service provisioning. DCN, online services, and applications typically require minimal latency in any information exchange. Moreover, compared with Internet traffic, the nature of traffic in DCN is bursty, delay, and throughput sensitive. Due to this reason, state-of-the-art TCP congestion control algorithms perform poorly and suffer from the problems, such as TCP Incast, TCP Outcast, Pseudo-Congestion Effect, Buffer pressure, and Queue build-up. For improving the performance of DCN, in recent years, various congestion control algorithms have been proposed for DCN. This paper summarizes the reason why the state-of-the-art TCP congestion control algorithm performs poorly and presents an overview of the recently proposed congestion control algorithms for DCN, followed by a comparative summary of their performance. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
