Research Impact and Deployment

  • Blastshield: Based on our research paper published at USENIX NSDI 2022, this work deploys decentralized SDN traffic engineering in the Microsoft wide-area network. See Microsoft’s official announcement about this deployment.

  • OneWAN: Based on our research paper published at USENIX NSDI 2023, this extends the reach of software-defined traffic engineering to the edge of the cloud wide-area network. See Microsoft’s official announcement about this deployment.

  • RADWAN and Shoofly: This work on cloud optical wide-area networks was published at SIGCOMM 2018 and SIGCOMM 2021. The work has seen partial deployment in the Microsoft production network. See Microsoft’s blog post about this work’s impact here.

  • TACCL: Our work from USENIX NSDI 2023 on synthesizing custom collective communication algorithms is actively in use by both academics and industry professionals. TACCL’s code is open-source as part of the MSCCL tools repository.
