An Elephant in the Room: Using Sampling for Detecting Heavy-Hitters in Programmable Switches

The ability to detect elephant flows in the forwarding device itself, i.e., a switch, facilitates the deployment of new advanced applications such as load-balancing, per-flow QoS management, etc. Sketches and Space Saving summarization techniques are used for elephant flow detection. However, their...
