Amazon\'s RNG network architecture could reshape data centres, cutting equipment 69 percent while boosting throughput
Amazon’s new data centre network architecture, Resilient Network Graphs (RNG), can cut network equipment by 69 percent compared with existing designs, Tom\'s Hardware reported. RNG targets the hierarchical fat-tree structure, which can create traffic bottlenecks. Based on random graph theory, RNG links routers in a distributed mesh to spread traffic across many paths. Amazon said it raises throughput 33 percent, cuts power use 40 percent and could reduce infrastructure costs by up to 45 percent.
