Abstract

An approach is provided for optimizing application throughput. Data is collected about traffic flow in a computer network from one or more switches and one or more switches in the computer network. A hot spot destination in the computer network is identified by performing analytics on the collected data about the traffic flow against a traffic pattern in the computer network. An application-optimized software-defined networking (SDN) path is created for new flows to the hot spot destination. In response to an establishment of a new flow, the new flow is forwarded to the application-optimized SDN path.
