Description Gurpreet Singh 2023-04-18 02:21:32 UTC

Description of problem:

Telco Service Provider workloads require high forwarding performance and data plane acceleration. High throughput requires Enhanced platform awareness tuning of the infrastructure and virtualization layer. Guidelines for EPA are well established but misconfigurations or custom designs overlook the guidelines resulting in a suboptimal performance for NFV workloads

Use Cases:

(1) Telco SP wants to validate EPA configurations and optimizations before deploying NFV workloads

(2) Telco SP is experiencing performance degradation for their NFV workloads in production networks. Need for a EPA validation for troubleshooting and RCA
