Moving past TCP in the data center, part 2 [LWN.net]
At the end of our earlier article on John Ousterhout's talk at Netdev 0x16, he had concluded that TCP was unsuitable for data-center environments for a variety of reasons. He also argued that there was no way to repair TCP so that it could serve the needs of data-center networking. In order for software to be able to use the full potential of today's networking hardware, TCP needs to be replaced with a protocol that is different in almost every way, he said. The second half of the talk covered the Homa transport protocol that he and others at Stanford have been working on as a possible replacement for TCP in the data center.
The Homa project set out to design a protocol from scratch that would be ideal for the needs of data-center networking today. It turned out to be different from TCP in each of the five aspects that he had covered in the first half of the talk; the choices made by Homa for those work well together to "produce a really really high-performance data-center protocol". But, he stressed, Homa is not suitable for wide-area networks (WANs); it is only for data centers.
