Abstract

Some embodiments of the invention provide a method for performing congestion control for a particular packet flow associated with a first machine operating in a network. The method is performed at a first machine executing on a first host computer. The method receives, from multiple machines operating in the network and executing on other host computers, remote state data associated with a first multiplicity of packet flows traversing the multiple machines in the network. The method collects local state data associated with a second multiplicity of packet flows associated with the first machine. Based on the received remote and local state data, the method adjusts an amount of bandwidth allocated to the particular packet flow associated with the first machine.
