Internet global data traffic has grown exponentially, creating the problem to meet this growth in datacenters. If this growth is not met, resulting overloads and bottlenecks might cause loss of customers. A solution through infrastructure investments can have two factors: increasing the data transmission rate and increasing the capacity of theservers. Thus more users and more applications will be serviced in the same time interval in datacenters. This dissertation shows a solution that uses Traffic Engineering in a Software Defined Networking (SDN) environment using the OpenFlow protocol, it can beapplicable to incoming traffic in a Datacenter. Incoming traffic of client service requests is divided into several distinct links to replica servers, following a load balancing policy. The solution, implemented in a physical environment, can reduce the average duration of these service requests, which is the main contribution of this work
