Clarification on Intel Support for the Intel DPDK Accelerated Open vSwitch (OVDK) (Gray, Mark D) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Tue, 25 Nov 2014 10:55:03 +0000 From: "Gray, Mark D" To: "dpdk-ovs@lists.01.org" Subject: [Dpdk-ovs] Clarification on Intel Support for the Intel DPDK Accelerated Open vSwitch (OVDK) Message-ID: <738D45BC1F695740A983F43CFE1B7EA92D790E6E@IRSMSX102.ger.corp.intel.com> =09 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=3D"us-ascii" Hi, As part of its commitment to SDN and NFV, Intel is an active participant in= several open source and open standards projects. Until recently, Intel mad= e contributions to two virtual switch community projects: Open vSwitch (OVS= ) and Intel(r) DPDK Accelerated Open vSwitch (OVDK). OVDK successfully demo= nstrated the huge advantage of DPDK for data packet acceleration and today = DPDK is well received for high performing virtual switches and routers. Now= , with the capabilities of DPDK incorporated into the mainstream OVS projec= t, Intel is ceasing investments around OVDK and instead focusing efforts ar= ound OVS with DPDK-netdev, and advancing hardware acceleration. Q&A ------------------------------------------------------------ Can I still use OVDK? Yes. However Intel is migrating to Open vSwitch version 2.4, which includes= DPDK-netdev in user space (currently available as an experimental feature = Open vSwitch version 2.3). How long will Intel continue to maintain the OVDK project? Maintenance, which includes integration of patches, nightly builds, mailing= list support, and bug fixing on a best-effort basis, will continue until J= uly 1, 2015. However, there will be no further enhancements, effective imme= diately. What are intel plans for OVS? Intel will focus its effort in advancing hardware acceleration when using O= VS with DPDK-netdev=20 Will Intel continue to make improvements to the DPDK? Yes. Updates will be available in the DPDK download available at www.dpdk.o= rg and incorporated into future Open vSwitch features.
