New Patent Expands Spine and Leaf Networks with Network Fusion

    OTTAWA, ON, January 08, 2021 /24-7PressRelease/ -- This is a breakthrough in network topology design that enables a large number of basic spine and leaf networks to be architecturally joined to form a single vast contiguous data network. Starting with the well-known spine and leaf concept, AcceleRoute adds next generation architectural capabilities that are well suited for scaling data centers and cloud services for decades to come. This latest patent moves the AcceleRoute portfolio forward by adding a scalability mechanism called Network Fusion (tm).

Spine and Leaf networks are gaining increasing attention. In their simplest form, these networks offer excellent performance, however their scalability is limited by the number of ports and the capacity of the spine switches. With Internet traffic growing at an unprecedented rate due to applications like high bandwidth video and work-from-home, network scalability is becoming an increasing issue.

AcceleRoute uses a fundamentally different network topology to expand the capacity of spine and leaf networks. Unlike conventional networks that scale "vertically" by adding increasingly larger spine switches and additional spine layers, AcceleRoute scales "horizontally" using lateral connections to interconnect spines. This patented method, called Network Fusion, enables spine and leaf networks to be architecturally joined to form a seamless spine fabric. This "Lego" approach to expanding networks has a range of operational advantages:

Entire networks can be constructed using relatively small spine switches that make it easy and efficient to stock spares for construction and repair with minimal obsolescence.

Smooth expansion is incremental and virtually unlimited with no service disruption.

Every dollar invested buys gear that can stay in the network a long time and can be easily repurposed.

Zero buffering in the core network delivers near-zero latency and high stability under high traffic fluctuations.

Evolvable to optical switching for significant power and footprint reduction.

AcceleRoute is a data network architecture disclosed in a family of patents offering an evolutionary path for network vendors and operators. AcceleRoute inventor and network designer Dr. Maged Beshai says "The AcceleRoute Network Fusion capability was invented for modern data centers and cloud services to incrementally scale on a virtually unlimited basis".

Modern networks have benefited from massive technology evolution in both link and node switching but the network architecture hasn't really changed. AcceleRoute offers a fundamentally new and vastly superior approach to building high capacity, low latency networks. InventionShare CEO, Greg Waite says "AcceleRoute offers a really practical way to build evergreen networks that can actually keep up with the spectacular growth in network traffic".
