Typically, the production data centers function with various risk factors, such as for instance the network dynamicity, topological asymmetry, and switch failures. Hence, the load-balancing schemes should consider the sensing accurate path circumstances as well as the reduction of failures. However, under dynamic traffic, current load-balancing schemes use the fixed parameter setting, resulting in suboptimal performances. Therefore, we propose a multi-level dynamic traffic load-balancing (MDTLB) protocol, which uses an adaptive approach of parameter setting. The simulation results show that the MDTLB outperforms the state-of-the-art schemes in terms of both the flow completion time and throughput in typical data center applications.
