Title
Toward a Sweet Spot of Data Plane Programmability, Portability, and Performance: On the Scalability of Multi-Architecture P4 Pipelines.
Abstract
Despite having received less attention compared to the control and application plane aspects of software-defined networking (SDN), the data plane is a critical piece of the puzzle. P4 takes SDN datapaths to the next level by unlocking deep programmability through a target-independent high-level programming language that can be compiled to run on a variety of targets (e.g., ASIC, FPGA, and GPU). Th...
