Abstract:
Technologies for applying a scrambling function in unfair load balancing scenarios include a network device having a communication circuitry and compute engine executing software on the network device. The compute engine is to determine, using a load balancing function, a distribution for data sets to each of multiple bins. Each bin maps to a destination. The network device determines, as a function of the distribution, an unfairness score indicative of the distribution being unequal among each of the destinations. In response to a determination that the unfairness score exceeds a specified threshold, the network device enables a scrambling function to be performed during configuration of the plurality of bins with the destinations.
