The continued growth of large-scale data centers has resulted in a
wide range of architectures and designs. Each design is tuned to
address the challenges and requirements of the specific applications
and workload that the data is being built for. Each design evolves
as engineering solutions are developed to workaround limitations of
existing protocols, hardware, as well as software implementations.
The goal of this document is to characterize this problem space in
detail in order to better understand if there is any gap in making
address resolution scale in various network designs for data
centers. In particular it is our goal to peel back the various
optimization and engineering solutions to develop generalized
reference architectures for a data center. We also discuss the
various factors that influence design choices in developing various
data center designs.
