VIRTUAL

SWITCHING AND ROUTING

vSwitch, vRouter: Challenges and Opportunities

Many demands as

adoption picks up,

however…

Increased E W traffic

Network Appliances

place new demands

Higher core density =>

higher VM VM traffic

.

Requirements for High

performance VMs and

Network Appliances

Support high performance

VM (w/ up to 40Gb NIC)

Higher throughput,

low CPU utilization

Low latency, controlled

latency (jitter)

Need for multi-tenant

segmentation with

advanced layer 3

2: Intel Internal measurement of packet processing performance using Intel Xeon processors. Software and workloads used in performance tests may have been optimized for performance only on Intel

microprocessors. Performance tests, such as SYSmark and MobileMark, are measured using specific computer systems, components, software, operations and functions. Any change to any of those factors may

cause the results to vary. You should consult other information and performance tests to assist you in fully evaluating your contemplated purchases, including the performance of that product when combined with

other products.

BROCADE

SOFTWARE NETWORKING

Rackspace Case Study

Customers wanted additional network services at utility pricing

To keep competitive, CSP started using H/W to provide services

Huge up-front CAPEX – many months until realizing profits

Long lead times for customers – 3 to 7 days to get services hooked up

Limited functions & scale – H/W was shared with multiple customers

PROBLEM STATEMENT

• Full mesh VPN between multiple

VPCs and datacenter

• Layer 2or Layer 3

• Use for cloud bursting, HA, phased
