Abstract

Techniques are provided for dynamic communication protocol control in a communication environment. For example, a request is sent by a given processing node of a plurality of processing nodes to a computing system. Each of the plurality of processing nodes is operatively coupled to the computing system. Each of at least a subset of the plurality of processing nodes is configured to communicate via at least a first communication protocol with which each of the subset of the plurality of processing nodes share bandwidth. The request seeks usage of a given amount of additional bandwidth associated with the first communication protocol by the given processing node from one or more of the subset of processing nodes. One or more of the subset of processing nodes can then decide to cede the additional bandwidth to the given processing node and convert to using another communication protocol.
