Implementation of SDN Controller as Load Balancing Using Datacenter Topology
Zahraa Alaa Baqer, Mohammed Najm Abdullah
Abstract: The load balancing is the most important issue which helps to reduce traffic in datacenter topology. However balancing the traffic load and optimizing better path are very important. In this paper we used Dijkstra’s Algorithm to implement the load balancing in software define network (SDN) controller. Mininet and floodlight controller were used to setup the network environment. The result show that the load balancing algorithm is increased bandwith and reduced latency of the network, in order to achieve a better performance and better resource utilization of the network. .
