OPNFV Danube Release
======================
Any NFV solution stack is only as good as its foundation: The networking
infrastructure. Key foundational assets for a NFV infrastructure are:
* The virtual forwarder: The virtual forwarder needs to be a feature-rich, high
performance, highly scale virtual switch-router. It needs to leverage hardware
accelerators when available and run in user space. In addition, it should be
modular and easily extensible.
* Forwarder diversity: A solution stack should
support a variety of forwarders, hardware forwarders (physical switches and
routers) as well as software forwarders. This way virtual and physical
forwarding domains can be seamlessly glued together.
* Policy driven connectivity: Business policies should determine the network level
connectivity, rather than the other way around. Historically this has often
been the other way around which quite often resulted in operational
challenges.
In order to meet these desired qualities of an NFV infrastructure, the OPNFV
FastDataStacks project was started in spring 2016, shortly after the FD.io
Linux Foundation collaborative project was launched. FastDataStacks set out to
compose a variety of scenarios using FD.io as a foundation to create an NFV
solution that is both fast and flexible. OPNFV runs NFV for real – which also
means that a virtual forwarder has to supply multi-million packet per second
forwarding capability – even, and especially when integrated into a full stack
solution. Simple software switches which are often found in cloud deployments
with forwarding rates in the tens of thousands packets per second don’t offer
appropriate performance for NFV deployments.
FastDataStacks scenarios are created with components from a set of open source
projects. While performing the integration, FastDataStacks had to integrate
and significantly evolve the functionality of different upstream components
used, and evolve the automated installation and testing tools in OPNFV.
FastDataStacks is a great example of OPNFV’s modus operandi: create, compose,
deploy, test, iterate.
The key ingredient for all these scenarios is the data-plane forwarding and
control infrastructure supplied by FD.io, i.e. VPP and Honeycomb along with
OpenStack as the VM manager. In addition, OpenDaylight as a network controller
plays a key role in many of the scenarios built by FastDataStacks.
