As data center network topologies become increasingly complex and network traffic continues to surge, congestion control has emerged as a formidable challenge. Concurrently, the utilization of lossless networks can lead to issues such as PFC storms and PFC deadlocks. Our research indicates that existing end-to-end congestion control protocols are insufficient in fully utilizing bandwidth or responding promptly to congestion. In this paper, we introduce RVCC, a PFC-based hop-by-hop congestion control algorithm designed to address the adverse effects of PFC in lossless networks, thereby optimizing bandwidth utilization. RVCC achieves rapid and fine-grained congestion control through queue selection and switch communication. Experimental results obtained from the NS3 simulation demonstrate that RVCC significantly reduces tail latency and average latency compared to state-of-the-art algorithms.
