Abstract:
Disclosed are various embodiments for facilitating network flows in a networked environment. In various embodiments, a switch transmits data using an egress port that comprises an egress queue. The switch sets a congestion notification threshold for the egress queue. The switch generates a drain rate metric based at least in part on a drain rate for the egress queue, and the congestion notification threshold is adjusted based at least in part on the drain rate metric.
