Open Infrastructure Summit Dress Rehearsal Sneak Peak & Pizza Too

Join us for pizza (provided by Orenco Schmizza Publichouse) and a preview of talks from the upcoming Open Infrastructure Summit. The plan is to give presenters a safe space for a dress rehearsal-type session where they can do a dry run and get real time feedback. Raffle prizes too!

AGENDA

5:30 – 6:30 p.m. Check-in, Pizza, & Networking

6:30 – 7 p.m. Intro to Tungsten Fabric and the vRouter - Savannah Loberger
Tungsten Fabric is an open source network virtualization solution for providing connectivity and security for virtual, containerized or bare-metal workloads. Savannah will cover the overall architecture of Tungsten Fabric and the DPDK vRouter, which performs packet forwarding and enforces network and security policies.

Bio: Savannah is doing her internship with NPG Architecture at Intel. She is actively working on optimizations and performance measuring of the DPDK vRouter.

7:00 – 7:15 p.m. Painless Cache Allocation in the Cloud – Sunku Ranganath
As more and more workloads move off dedicated hardware into the cloud as virtual appliances, contention for shared hardware resource such as cache, memory and network bandwidth affects performance in the same vein as resources such as CPU and RAM. In this talk we discuss the Resource Management Daemon (RMD) architecture, components, and the design of monitor component that will track and fine tune allocations to meet service level agreements. Last but not least we share how RMD can be leveraged by cloud and container orchestration engines to effectively introduce cache allocation capabilities.

Bio: Sunku is a network software engineer in Intel with background in building Network Function Virtualization reference architectures. Currently focused in telemetry and monitoring domain & actively involved in Collectd & OPNFV communities.

5 Minute Raffle Break

7:20 – 7:45 p.m. Unleashing network hardware goodness in the cloud – Manjeet Singh Bhatia
Manjeet will discuss how a hardware feature related to Intel SRIOV was enabled in the Cloud, and give an idea about what it takes to enable a Ethernet feature all the way up to cloud service api. It will also briefly cover how test pipeline was setup for this feature.

Bio: Manjeet is a cloud engineer at Intel focused on Software Defined network, currently working on enabling and testing hardware features in the Cloud.

7:45- 8:00 p.m. Closing Remarks and Raffle
