Description
VSAP(VPP Stack Acceleration Project) is to use VPP host stack to accelerate a serial of network infrastructures such as Nginx, Envoy etc. This project is to demonstrate that with VPP working together with DPDK high performance user space host stack acceleration, the well-deployed network infrastructure project can benefit from this new innovative user space optimization, and VSAP can help industry to achieve more performance gain and reduce data center OPEX. VSAP will firstly focus on Nginx VPP host stack acceleration, and then cover more projects in the long term. The initial code is contributed from Intel and Shanghai Jiaotong University. POC code is ready, and we can achieve around 100% RPS improvement for 1KB Nginx request.
Scope
VSAP's main responsibility is to provide an accelerated and high performance version for the well-deployed Open source projects, and we are also targeting to make this work finally upstream to the original project. To achieve, VSAP provides the enhanced code modification based original code base for VPP host stack integration. At the mean time, VSAP provides necessary configuration parameters and test script to help user to easily start from scratch.
- Enhanced projects
- Start from Nginx, and will cover more projects such as Envoy, gRPC etc.
- Optimized Protocol
- First VSAP will focus on VPP host stack optimization in TCP
- The next stage is to accelerate TLS, QUIC, HTTP/2
- Enhanced IPC
- Enhance cross process data transportation.
- Container deployment
- Demonstrate VSAP in container and micro-service environment
- Performance tuning
- Test configuration, test scripts and demo

Vendor Neutral
No current or expected issues with vendor neutrality
Meets Board Policy (including IPR, being within Board defined Scope etc)
Meets board policy as expressed in Technical Community Charter and IP Policy
Administrata
- Request for Project proposal consideration
- Email: (place link to email to TSC proposing project, this can be obtained from TSC Archives
- Date: (date proposed, makes it simpler to calculate the pre-requisite 2 week time period of gestation before being permitted to be voted on)
