METHOD FOR THE EXCHANGE OF DATA BETWEEN NODES OF A SERVER CLUSTER, AND SERVER CLUSTER IMPLEMENTING SAID METHOD

摘要

The invention relates to a method for the exchange of data between nodes of a cluster of servers comprising a plurality of nodes (Ni,j,k,l) interconnected by a geographical interconnection network comprising a plurality of transmission segments interconnecting the nodes. Said method involves: the emission (104), by a so-called emitter node (Ne), of data intended for at least one other so-called receiver node (Nr); the transmission (106) of said data by means of the geographical interconnection network; and the reception (108) of the data by each receiver node (Nr). The data is supplied to each receiver node (Nr) with information relating to the geographical interconnection network transmission segments crossed between the emitter node (Ne) and said receiver node (Nr), during the transmission of said data.
