A modular switch and a method that includes (a) first tier switching elements that comprise input output (IO) ports; and (b) second tier switching elements that are coupled to the first tier switching elements in a non-blocking manner. The first tier switching elements are configured to perform traffic management of traffic, and perform substantially all egress processing and ingress processing of the traffic; wherein the traffic management comprises load balancing, traffic shaping and flow-based reordering. The second tier switching elements are configured to (a) provide a shared memory space to the first tier switching elements, (b) perform substantially all of the queuing of traffic and (c) send, to the first tier switching elements, status information related to the status of shared memory resources. The first tier switching elements are configured to perform the traffic management based, at least in part, on the status information.

Modular switch and a method for scaling switches

A system for managing traffic between servers, the system may include first tier switches that are coupled to the servers; second tier switches that are coupled to the first tier switches and to third tier switches; and controllers. Wherein each first tier switch comprises first queues. Wherein each second tier switch comprises second queues. The controllers are configured to control a traffic between the first tier switches and the second tier switches attributed to the traffic between the servers, (a) on, at least, a queue granularity; (b) while controlling some first queues to provide buffer extension to some second queues, and (c) while controlling some second queues to provide buffer extension to some first queues.

Low latency flow control in data centers

A method for managing traffic in a computerized system that may include routers and at least one edge device, the method may include performing traffic management operations for controlling traffic related to the routers while executing a first traffic management operations by the at least one edge device, and executing second traffic management operations by the routers.

Efficient core routing

A method for responding to a failure of a main die of a switch data-plane device, the method may include applying a secondary packet forwarding process by multiple chiplets, following the failure of the main die and during at least a part of an execution of a synchronous graceful process that follows the failure of the main die; wherein the multiple chiplets are interconnected to each other by a secondary interconnect; wherein the multiple chiplets and are coupled to the main die by a primary interconnect; wherein the applying of the secondary packet forwarding process is less complex than a primary forwarding process applied by the main die while the main die is functional.
