What is the Vector Packet Processor (VPP)
|
|
#########################################
|
|
|
|
FD.io's Vector Packet Processor (VPP) is a fast, scalable layer 2-4
|
|
multi-platform network stack. It runs in `Linux Userspace <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_space>`_
|
|
on multiple architectures including x86, ARM, and Power architectures.
|
|
VPP is built using the `Dataplane Development Kit (DPDK) <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Plane_Development_Kit>`_.
|
|
|
|
VPP benefits include high performance, proven technology, modularity,
|
|
and a rich feature set.
|
|
|
|
VPP supports integration with OpenStack and Kubernetes. Network
|
|
management features include configuration, counters, sampling and
|
|
more. For developers, VPP includes plugin extensibility,
|
|
high-performance event-logging, and multiple kinds of packet
|
|
tracing. Development debug images include complete symbol tables, and
|
|
extensive consistency checking.
|
|
|
|
Some VPP Use-cases include vSwitches, vRouters, Gateways, Firewalls
|
|
and Load Balancers, to name a few. Out of the box, VPP can work as a
|
|
software development kit or an appliance.
