System and Methods for Load Placement in Data Centers

A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable medium having computer readable and executable code for instructing a processor in a management unit for a plurality of information handling systems forming a network to perform a method, the method comprising:

• performing a discovery of the network topology;
• receiving a load report for a link between information handling systems in the network;
• determining a flow rate for a link in the network;
• and
• computing a label switch path.

A network managing device configured to be coupled to a service provider having resources, and to be coupled to a storage component and a computational component to provide a service to a plurality of users through a network, the network managing device comprising:

• a link to a plurality of switches;
• a processor circuit configured to discover a topology of the network, to determine a flow rate for a link in the network, and to compute a label switch path;
• and
• a memory circuit to store the label switch path and the topology of the network.
