DATS002 - Virtualizing the Network to Enable a Software Defined Infrastructure

Intel is heavily investing in products and technologies for network overlays, network function virtualization (NFV) and software defined networking (SDN) to help drive the network hardware architectural transformation to enable Software Defined Infrastructure (SDI). This session will discuss industry trends and evolving standards that impact the datacenter network, provide details on deployment of Network Virtualization Overlays (NVO), and use live demonstrations of various types of applications and workloads.  Specific focus on network hardware capabilities to optimize traffic management and performance of network overlays using VXLAN, NVGRE and Geneve.

Topics include:

•  Network virtualization using network overlays

•  Networking equipment and server configuration requirements for LACP LAGs, tunnel end-points and gateways

•  What Intel is doing to enable network overlay technology like NVGRE, VXLAN and Geneve

•  Configuration and benchmark testing examples

This session will give an overview of Intel’s efforts toward providing platforms for a Software-Defined Infrastructure (SDI) that aims to improve the flexible provisioning of compute, networking and storage resources to lower overall TCO and enable new services.  We will use an open-source reference architecture to provide an analysis of how application needs can be communicated to a scale-out, SDI-ready infrastructure, and study a variety of usage examples drawn from Software-defined Networking (SDN), Network Function Virtualization (NFV) and Service Function Chaining.

Topics include:

•  Common technical challenges to pursuing SDI across these settings, including:

      Application and infrastructure interaction

      Efficient scaling of performance (e.g., for baseband and packet processing)

      Ensuring security and isolation

      Providing fault tolerance and resilience Implications to the Orchestration and Control layers of the system

•  Specific Intel® platform hardware features that can help the software ecosystem and developers to address these challenges

View webcast and audio recordings.


Topics in this session include:

•  Explain the Service Provider’s challenges

•  Why service chaining using Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) helps solve the challenge

•  What challenges exist to dynamically provision a network application

•  The Intel® Open Network Platform (Intel® ONP) hardware and software

•  Intel ONP in action – Wind River ON Server and service chaining

•  Wind River ON Server dynamic service chaining demo using OpenStack* and Open Daylight* technologies

Topics in this session include:

•  Overview of Intel® Data Plane Development Kit (Intel® DPDK) features that address Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) needs

•  Introduce the upcoming Intel DPDK features that will take advantage of new Intel® Architecture based platform features

•  Highlight the many community projects integrating Intel DPDK

•  Short explanation of Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) and its benefits

•  How to use VMware* vSphere* ESXi* 5.5 and Intel DPDK to create a virtual network function

•  Description of specific features designed to support latency sensitive applications

•  Best practices for performance tuning for higher packet throughput and lower latencies
