Advanced Control Distributed Processing Architecture (ACDPA) using SDN and Hadoop for identifying the flow characteristics and setting the quality of service(QoS) in the network Today the network is seemingly complex and vast and it is difficult to gauge its characteristics. Network administrators need information to check the network behavior for capacity planning, quality of service requirements and planning for the expansion of the network. Software defined networking (SDN) is an approach where we introduce abstraction to simplify the network into two layers, one used for controlling the traffic and other for forwarding the traffic. Hadoop is used for distributed processing. In this paper we combine the abstraction property of SDN and the processing power Hadoop to propose an architecture which we call as Advanced Control Distributed Processing Architecture (ACDPA), which is used to determine the flow characteristics and setting the priority of the flows i.e. essentially setting the quality of service(QoS). We provide experimental details with sample traffic to show how to setup this architecture. We also show the results of traffic classification and setting the priority of the hosts.
