Homa protocl can be deployed on the basis of existing switches (not all of them, but some of them will play well). See also https://github.com/PlatformLab/HomaM

In addition, a closed environment and the SDN's popularity in large data centers is a significant cost-reducing factors compared to typical IPv6 deployment.
- MuffinFlavored 4y agoDumb question, there's no way to talk to a PC over the Internet with Homa, right? Since our home ISPs + routers are all only doing UDP/TCP over IPv4/IPv6? Homa is mainly for "LAN"?
- wmf 4y agoYes.
- MuffinFlavored 4y agoWill we ever see the day where computers over the Internet talk to each other over something other than UDP/TCP over IPv4/IPv6?
- wmf 4y agoGiven Google and Apple's efforts to de-ossify the Internet, maybe. But no time soon.
- topranks 4y agoHmm I didn’t really read about it. The proposal here is to replace IP as well as TCP? Good luck pulling that off.
