OpenDaylight Summit 2016

NFV and virtualized high performance applications, such as video processing, require a “fast data stack” solution that provides both carrier grade forwarding performance, scalability and open extensibility, along with functionality for realizing application policies and controlling a complex network topology. This session discusses how different components in OpenStack and OpenDaylight are being evolved to integrate with the new open source Virtual Packet Processor (VPP) forwarder provided by the FD.io Linux Foundation project to build such a solution stack. The FastDataStacks is run as an OPNFV project where leverages OPNFV’s continuous integration, deployment and test pipeline as well as the automated component install and test infrastructure.
