Broadcom CEO Chen Fuyang: Dynamic Load Balancing is the Ultimate Solution to Network Congestion

On April 9, the Digital Economy Frontier Forum of the 6th China Electronic Information Expo was held at the Shenzhen Convention and Exhibition Center. Chen Fuyang, CEO of Broadcom Co., Ltd. delivered a keynote speech. He stated that Broadcom aims to create a fully autonomous intelligent network and continue to promote it. The development of digital economy. Chen Fuyang pointed out that the digital economy results from the online connection between people, businesses, equipment, data, and processes. The core is the interconnection of humans, organizations, and machines. By 2025, it is expected that each user in the network It will interact with the device 4800 times a day. In 2016 alone, the digital economy produced 16ZB bytes of data, which exceeds the sum of the data generated in the past 100 years. To support the rapid development of the digital economy, the network must have large-scale capabilities. In today's networks, users are only concerned about one-third of the data, and another two-thirds of the data traffic is in the data center. To make the network capacity meet the data exchange between large networks, computing, storage, and workload functions should be torn down. Solve to allow independent expansion of computing pools and memory pools, and to support workloads running on multiple servers, using multiple memory servers According to the same, in a typical network system, software upgrades are performed manually, and when problems occur, the configuration of the equipment must be completed by IT personnel. Data congestion caused by peak overloading will also lead to equipment failure and service quality degradation. Professional IT personnel are required to isolate or remove the problematic device from a large network. As the network becomes more and more complex, manual repair becomes more and more difficult, and innovation and improvement are urgently needed. When the network continues to be scaled, how to go? The management of large-scale networks? Chen Fuyang said that traditional networks usually use a multi-level structure. With the increase of data traffic, the efficiency of hierarchical networks is getting lower and lower. One way to solve this problem is to increase the bandwidth of network switches. The bandwidth has doubled from every three years to double every year. The expanded bandwidth can increase the density of network switches, allow the network structure to collapse and remove an entire layer of switches, and flatten the network to ease the network. Delay, workload, improve the network's real-time response speed, implementation costs, energy consumption reduction. Large-scale network management also needs Service network bottlenecks. When the network speed exceeds 100 Gbit/s, copper cannot meet the transmission needs. The edge-mounted pluggable fiber modules provide a flexible, economical, and intensive solution for system interconnection and can meet the current needs. The network transmission needs. Chen Fuyang said that in order to meet the needs of the future network interconnection, silicon and optical materials should be further integrated into the multi-chip module, and the electrical interface between the optical device and the silicon chip should be optimized to reduce cost and power. Consumption. Chen Fuyang pointed out that the configuration efficiency of network resources depends on the load balancing mechanism. Dynamic load balancing is the ultimate solution to data congestion. In addition, remote monitoring technology can be used to define network control software to improve the visibility of network devices and nodes. Self-correcting network congestion and dynamically adjusting workload. Based on the above innovations, Broadcom is expected to create a completely autonomous network in the future, autonomously complete network situation sensing, analyze information, learn independently, adapt to the environment, and allow IT developers to focus more on innovations. Work to promote the digital economy more effectively. Create smart, completely Autonomy, ultra-high-speed connectivity, is Broadcom’s ultimate goal.
