Network Requirements for Resource Disaggregation

The focus of this project is to derive the minimum latency and bandwidth requirements that the network in disaggregated datacenters must provide to avoid degrading application-level performance and explore the feasibility of meeting these requirements with existing system designs and commodity networking technology.

Network Fabric for Resource Disaggregation

1. Shoal

This project focusses on designing predictable low latency high bandwidth network fabric for high-density disaggregated racks within datacenters.

2. vRack

This project focusses on building flexible racks within datacenters, where groups of physically apart servers can be put into virtual racks to enhance their performance.

Compute Fabric for Resource Disaggregation

1. Monotasks

This project focusses on how to reason about the performance of today's systems by making it easy to understand where bottlenecks lie and the performance implications of various system changes.
