Abstract: Systems and related methods are disclosed to store and throttle requests received by a service provider. In embodiments, the system includes two queues, a first-in-first-out (FIFO) queue and an overflow queue. An incoming request is stored in the overflow queue when there is no room in the FIFO queue. The overflow queue stores the requests in some priority order, which determines the order that the requests are promoted onto the FIFO queue and throttled. The FIFO queue may be sized according to a response time requirement provided in a service level agreement (SLA). In some embodiments, the FIFO queue may dynamically adjust its size based on the expected processing time or abandon duration of incoming requests. The hybrid approach allows a system to handle requests in simple FIFO order in normal circumstances, and in a more sophisticated priority order when the system is overloaded.

Abstract: This invention proposes a new communication locality oriented high-radix (CLHR) network. In this hierarchical architecture, the lowest level includes routers or servers, called level-0; the upper level is composed by groups of routers or servers, called level-1; for the highest level, a number of level-(l?1) groups establish level-1 group. A new deadlock-free adaptive routing algorithm is proposed for the CLHR network. On the one hand, the proposed minus-first routing (MFR) algorithm or plus-first routing algorithm, that implements deadlock-free partially-adaptive routing without any virtual channel, can guarantee the number of communication hops between two nodes is no more than five. On the other hand, this invention presents the fully adaptive routing algorithm that uses MFR algorithm as the baseline routing using a new flow control scheme. The CLHR network and the new routing algorithm effectively improve the performance, save energy, improve the ability for separation, and resist disturbance.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for managing multiple queues of a network interface card (NIC) of a host computer that executes a data compute node (DCN). The method defines first, second, and third subsets of the queues. The first subset of queues is associated with a first feature for processing data messages received by the NIC, the second subset of queues is associated with a second feature, and the third subset is associated with both features. The method receives a request from the DCN to process data messages addressed to the DCN using both the first and second features. The method configures the NIC to direct data messages received for the DCN to a queue that is selected from the third subset of queues.
