Dear Nanog members, I am a PhD student at University of Toronto and I am working on traffic burstiness in data centers. In the following I am asking two questions to raise motivation for my research. I appreciate if anyone could answer these questions to their best knowledge. *The questions are:* 1) ‘Bursty’ is a word with no agreed meaning. How do you define a bursty traffic? 2) If you are involved with a data center, is your data center traffic bursty? -- If yes, -- Do you think that it will be useful to supress the burstiness in your traffic? (For example by pacing the traffic into shorter bursts) -- If no: -- Are you already supressing the burstiness? How? -- Would you anticipate the traffic becoming burstier in the future? Thanks, Monia ------------------ Monia Ghobadi PhD Student University of Toronto http://www.cs.utoronto.ca/~monia/
