Brocade: Landmark Routing on Overlay Networks

Brocade proposes a novel approach by leveraging supernodes to optimize routing in overlay networks. Supernodes, with better resources and knowledge, organize nodes to improve efficiency and performance. The Brocade architecture enhances object location, routing, and message filtering, offering advantages such as simplicity and high hit rates. The simulation results demonstrate improved routing performance and the potential for near-optimal efficiency. Future research directions include further optimization and studying the impact of different supernode selections. Brocade presents a powerful idea applicable beyond P2P networks, promising efficient and scalable routing solutions.

  1. Brocade: Landmark Routing on Overlay Networks To P2P or not to P2P? http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~duan/prjs/cs262/ CS262A Fall 2001 Yitao Duan and Ling Huang duan@cs.berkeley.edu, hlion@newton.berkeley.edu

  2. Motivation • Problems with existing P2P Network • Constrained by the theoretical approach adopted, nodes are treated uniformly[1, 2, 3, 4] • Routing algorithms are decoupled from underlying topology and node capability • Result: inefficient routing • Reality: Nodes are not born equal • Bandwidth, Connectivity, Storage, Processing Power. • Administrative Constraints

  3. Brocade: Discrimination Justified • A philosophy: A system is more efficient when it is organized – e.g., IP routing on Internet • Respect the differences and take advantage of those that are more powerful – Supernodes! • Fast/well-connected/situated near network access points • Supernodes have better knowledge of underlying network characteristics. Benefit from aggregation. • Construct a hierarchy out of flat network

  5. Overlay nodes are grouped by their supernodes – Cover Set • Supernodes treat their overlay nodes as objects that they possess • Routing on Brocade => Object Location. Use your favorite • mechanism: Tapestry[1], CAN[3], Chord[2], Pastry[4] … • Message filtering: only send inter-domain messages to Brocade.

  6. Case Study - Brocade On Tapestry • Tapestry: A novel wide-area fault-tolerant location and routing infrastructure[1] • Construction • Gateway routers or machines close by as supernodes • Existing connections among supernodes as Brocade links • Routing: object location Tapestry style • Each supernode advertises the IDs of overlay nodes in its cover set as IDs of objects it “stores”. • Destination’s supernode can be found using Tapestry’s object location mechanism • Remaining issue: How to get onto Brocade?

  7. Get onto the Super Highway • Naïve Brocade:Tapestry routing unchanged. Message gets onto the Brocade overlay if a supernode is encountered on its route. • Advantage: simple, no modification to ordinary nodes. • Disadvantage: possibility of hitting a supernode in Tapestry routing small. • IP Snooping Brocade: Supernodes snoop IP packets to intercept Tapestry messages. • Advantage: • No modification to ordinary nodes. • High possibility of encountering supernodes because supernodes are situated near the edge of local networks. • Disadvantage: Difficult to implement

  8. Yes Ordinary Tapestry Routing Destination is in my cover set? No Send to supernode • Directed Brocade: Each overlay node keep info about • its supernode and decides by its own whether to send a • message to supernode directly. • Feasible: only local information required • Decision Engine: • A small cache storing most frequently used nodes in its cover set will do the trick. • Query locality will make hit rate high • Consequences of mistakes aren’t expensive

  10. Optimizing Object Location on Brocade • Routing latency could be high if latencies on Brocade links are high and object • location on Brocade is not optimized(Fig 3) • Optimization: Bloom Filter - Membership query and group ID problem Fig 3. Weighted latency RDP w/o optimization Fig 4. Weighted latency RDP with Bloom Filter Brocade link latency/Ordinary link latency = 8 : 1

  11. Conclusion and Future work • Brocade: powerful idea that can achieve near optimal performance • General enough to be applied to other (P2P) networks • Future research: • Study the effect of different supernodes selection and distribution • Further optimization of object location on Brocade overlay • Latent Brocade • Brocade benefits from aggregation of info • Bias some nodes in the network so they will be favored by others while selecting route - an implicit Brocade
