Metron presentation (with video) at NSDI 2018: NFV Service Chains at the True Speed of the Underlying Hardware

The emerging 100-Gbps deployments will soon challenge the packet processing limits of commodity hardware that is being used for Network Functions Virtualization (NFV). As an illustration,  the available time to process a 64-byte packet at 100 Gbps is only 5 nanoseconds. However, existing NFV platforms unnecessarily expend several nanoseconds exchanging packets between CPU cores to … Continue reading “Metron presentation (with video) at NSDI 2018: NFV Service Chains at the True Speed of the Underlying Hardware”
