Abstract
Disclosed are systems and methods to automatically and continuously control a switch network using a metadata-driven switch apparatus. In particular, a switch apparatus, comprised of multiple server-grade processors and co-processors coupled with a switch silicon, has a metadata-driven control program running on the switch apparatus to monitor and control the switch apparatus itself and the network traffic running through the switch apparatus. Furthermore, the switch apparatus and metadata-driven control program monitors the network state (health, behavior, and performance) of the entire switch network and receives feedback from the network to improve switch and network controls. The switch network may be composed of one metadata-driven switch apparatus coupled with one or more other metadata-driven switch apparatuses and may also be composed of one metadata-driven switch apparatus coupled with one or more foreign switch apparatuses.
