| Abstract (eng): | Data centers are becoming more and more important since there is a number of services covered especially by them. At the same time it is reasonable to maintain the costs of data centers low from a number of perspectives. To this end, one could propose a number of changes in the data center environment. While there is a number of studies that focus on different aspects of the data center environment, one of the most important factors that can be studied and changed is the transport protocol used in the data center environment. This change will have an impact on a number of factors in the data centers. For the purpose of this thesis a number of transport protocols were studied, starting from the broadly used TCP to a number of especially designed for data centers ones. These variations were studied for the changes they impose and the positive results they bring. At the same time the significance of DCTCP, the most extensively studied and deployed data center environment protocol was made apparent and the positive results from its deployment. This study outlines the necessity to know its behaviour while coexisting with TCP as well since its deployment in the wide Internet would bring positive results for latency, losses and buffer queues minimization. To this end, the protocol was studied by emulating network behaviour in Mininet network emulator and it was found out that its coexistence with TCP is possible without the TCP traffic starving as long as some parameters settings are followed. |
