TL;DR: This work proposes a software router architecture that parallelizes router functionality both across multiple servers and across multiple cores within a single server, and demonstrates a 35Gbps parallel router prototype.
Proceedings Article
Design and implementation of a consolidated middlebox architecture
TL;DR: CoMb is presented, a new architecture for middlebox deployments that systematically explores opportunities for consolidation, both at the level of building individual middleboxes and in managing a network of middleboxes.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Network support for resource disaggregation in next-generation datacenters
TL;DR: The question of whether the resources within a server are disaggregated and the datacenter is instead architected as a collection of standalone resources is explored to determine whether the network can enable disaggregation atdatacenter scales.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
The middlebox manifesto: enabling innovation in middlebox deployment
TL;DR: It is made the case that enabling innovation in middleboxes is at least as important, if not more important, as that for traditional switches and routers.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Towards high performance virtual routers on commodity hardware
TL;DR: It is shown that the fundamental performance bottleneck is currently the memory system, and that through careful mapping of tasks to CPU cores, one can achieve forwarding rates of 7 million minimum-sized packets per second on mid-range server-class systems, thus demonstrating the viability of software routers.
