The topology of a datacenter is defined using a JSON file. A topology consist of one or more clusters.
Each cluster consist of at least one host on which jobs can be executed. Each host consist of one or more CPUs,
a memory unit and a power model.
## Schema
The schema for the topology file is provided in [schema](TopologySchema).
In the following section, we describe the different components of the schema.
### Cluster
| variable | type | required? | default | description |
|----------|---------------------|-----------|---------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| name | string | no | Cluster | The name of the cluster. This is only important for debugging and post-processing |
| count | integer | no | 1 | The amount of clusters of this type are in the data center |
| hosts | List[[Host](#host)] | yes | N/A | A list of the hosts in a cluster. |
### Host
| variable | type | required? | default | description |
|-------------|-----------------------------|-----------|---------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| name | string | no | Host | The name of the host. This is only important for debugging and post-processing |
| count | integer | no | 1 | The amount of hosts of this type are in the cluster |
| cpus | List[[CPU](#cpu)] | yes | N/A | A list of the hosts in a cluster. |
| memory | [Memory](#memory) | yes | N/A | The memory used by the host |
| power model | [Power Model](#power-model) | yes | N/A | The power model used to determine the power draw of the host |
### CPU
| variable | type | Unit | required? | default | description |
|-----------|---------|-------|-----------|---------|--------------------------------------------------|
| name | string | N/A | no | unknown | The name of the CPU. |
| vendor | string | N/A | no | unknown | The vendor of the CPU |
| arch | string | N/A | no | unknown | the micro-architecture of the CPU |
| count | integer | N/A | no | 1 | The amount of cpus of this type used by the host |
| coreCount | integer | count | yes | N/A | The number of cores in the CPU |
| coreSpeed | Double | Mhz | yes | N/A | The speed of each core in Mhz |
### Memory
| variable | type | Unit | required? | default | description |
|-------------|---------|------|-----------|---------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| name | string | N/A | no | unknown | The name of the CPU. |
| vendor | string | N/A | no | unknown | The vendor of the CPU |
| arch | string | N/A | no | unknown | the micro-architecture of the CPU |
| count | integer | N/A | no | 1 | The amount of cpus of this type used by the host |
| memorySize | integer | Byte | yes | N/A | The number of cores in the CPU |
| memorySpeed | Double | ? | no | -1 | The speed of each core in Mhz. PLACEHOLDER: this currently does nothing. |
### Power Model
| variable | type | Unit | required? | default | description |
|-----------|---------|------|-----------|---------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| modelType | string | N/A | yes | N/A | The type of model used to determine power draw |
| power | string | Watt | no | 400 | The constant power draw when using the 'constant' power model type in Watt |
| maxPower | string | Watt | yes | N/A | The power draw of a host when using max capacity in Watt |
| idlePower | integer | Watt | yes | N/A | The power draw of a host when idle in Watt |
## Examples
In the following section, we discuss several examples of topology files. Any topology file can be verified using the
JSON schema defined in [schema](TopologySchema).
### Simple
The simplest data center that can be provided to OpenDC is shown below:
```json
{
"clusters": [
{
"hosts": [
{
"cpus": [
{
"coreCount": 16,
"coreSpeed": 1000
}
],
"memory": {
"memorySize": 100000
}
}
]
}
]
}
```
This is creates a data center with a single cluster containing a single host. This host consist of a single 16 core CPU
with a speed of 1 Ghz, and 100 MiB RAM memory.
### Count
Duplicating clusters, hosts, or CPUs is easy using the "count" keyword:
```json
{
"clusters": [
{
"count": 2,
"hosts": [
{
"count": 5,
"cpus": [
{
"coreCount": 16,
"coreSpeed": 1000,
"count": 10
}
],
"memory": {
"memorySize": 100000
}
}
]
}
]
}
```
This topology creates a datacenter consisting of 2 clusters, both containing 5 hosts. Each host contains 10 16 core
CPUs.
Using "count" saves a lot of copying.
### Complex
Following is an example of a more complex topology:
```json
{
"clusters": [
{
"name": "C01",
"count": 2,
"hosts": [
{
"name": "H01",
"count": 2,
"cpus": [
{
"coreCount": 16,
"coreSpeed": 1000
}
],
"memory": {
"memorySize": 1000000
},
"powerModel": {
"modelType": "linear",
"idlePower": 200.0,
"maxPower": 400.0
}
},
{
"name": "H02",
"count": 2,
"cpus": [
{
"coreCount": 8,
"coreSpeed": 3000
}
],
"memory": {
"memorySize": 100000
},
"powerModel": {
"modelType": "square",
"idlePower": 300.0,
"maxPower": 500.0
}
}
]
}
]
}
```
This topology defines two types of hosts with different coreCount, and coreSpeed.
Both types of hosts are created twice.
