- Description
- In recent times, the world is becoming a global village where connectivity is a new norm irrespective of geographical location. Within corporate networks, huge setbacks are faced due to a lack of efficient resource management. Load balancing is inevitable to cater to a reliable, faster, and congestion-free communication experience for exponentially increasing online enterprises. Dynamic network resource management for high performance and low data transmission latency in a network is necessary. The major issue faced by the traditional network is that it relies on static hardware switches. Software-Defined Network approaches paved a way to overcome the limitations of traditional networks. This research proposes the Dynamic Load Balancing Algorithm for Software-Defined Networks to utilize network resources optimally. The major function of the proposed algorithm is to determine alternative paths and further distribute the incoming and outgoing network flows to achieve optimum network resource utilization with faster traffic flow completion. The experiment is performed with the OpenDayLight Controller on the Mininet simulator, which emulates the network with the novel scheme. The results prove that the proposed solution has accomplished the benchmarks of optimum throughput, reduced redundancy, and reduced flow completion time. 2025 IEEE.
