The paper:

Is a UDP only library built on top of DPDK delivering (or direct to libverbs for Mellanox) that,

"handles packet loss, congestion, and background request execution. In microbenchmarks, one CPU core can handle up to 10 million small RPCs per second, or send large messages at 75 Gbps. We port a production-grade implementation of Raft state machine replication to eRPC without modifying the core Raft source code. We achieve 5.5 µs of replication latency on lossy Ethernet, which is faster than or comparable to specialized replication systems that use programmable switches, FPGAs, or RDMA."

My question: is there an alternative or similar DPDK based library doing the same thing? I merely want to know if there are options?

Thanks
