Lack of transparency, false incentives and lack of trus

In my quest to understand how much buffer space we really need in high-speed switches I encountered an interesting phenomenon: we no longer have the gut feeling of what makes sense, sometimes going as far as assuming that 16 MB (or 32MB) of buffer space per 10GE/25GE data center ToR switch is another $vendor shenanigan focused on cutting cost. Time for another set of Fermi estimates.
Let’s take a recent data center switch using Trident II+ chipset and having 16 MB of buffer space (source: awesome packet buffers page by Jim Warner). Most of switches using this chipset have 48 10GE ports and 4-6 uplinks (40GE or 100GE).

This article is kind of a special one for me. It doesn’t mean that everything I have written before has a little sense. Everything what I have written about the Data Centre Fabric project was steps towards fully automated data centre operation, and today we make a final step towards the closed-loop automation based using the real-time data analytics by InfluxData Kapacitor.

According to the official website, InfluxData Kapacitor is alerting system following publish-subscribe design pattern, which supports both steam and batch data processing. If we translate it from the geeks’ language, it means that Kapacitor can subscribe to a certain to topics in the data producer (e.g., time series database – InfluxDB or collector – Telegraf) and start getting information out of it:
