Abstract:
In the context of large-scale datacenter networks, the distinct mechanisms of these two protocols result in mutual interference when TCP and RoCE flows traverse shared segments of network. TCP may preempt the bandwidth allocated to RoCE, leading to unfair allocation of shared buffers. Nevertheless, due to the cost trade-off, the consideration of shared buffers becomes necessary. Therefore, isolating through traffic classes does not effectively address the issue. To meet the challenge, in this paper, we present BufferConcede, a switch-based traffic control method that allows TCP traffic to occupy more buffer space in non-hybrid switch, thereby weakening TCP traffic’s greediness for buffer space. We integrate it with practical congestion control approaches such as DCQCN, DCTCP. We evaluate BufferConcede in both implementation and large-scale simulations. Compared with state of the act, BufferConcede can reduce bandwidth allocation errors under 2.0% and reduce the average FCT of RoCE traffic by approximately 4.8%–10.2%. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2025.
