Abstract

The present application provides a path planning method and a controller. The method includes: acquiring data flow information of a to-be-transmitted job in a software-defined network, where the job includes at least one target data flow, and the data flow information of the job includes: a source address, a destination address, and a volume of each target data flow; and performing path planning according to the data flow information, and obtaining a job transmission path used to ensure that the job is transmitted in the software-defined network in a shortest job transmission time, where the job transmission path includes a transmission path corresponding to each target data flow in the job. The present application improves a data transmission speed of a job in an SDN network.
