Accelerating Control Plane for Edge Networks

Explore a 25-minute conference talk on accelerating control plane for edge networking. Learn about Sweetcomb, an open-source project designed to configure and telemetry appliances, VNFs, and CNFs with low resource requirements and fast configuration. Discover how this project can be leveraged in edge and cloud environments to enhance control plane performance for uCPE, SD-WAN, 5G, IoT, and more. Gain insights into Sweetcomb's software architecture, northbound interfaces, high availability support, real-time streaming telemetry in containers, and compatibility with various data planes. Examine the project's key elements, including its use of IETF and OpenConfig Yang models, integration capabilities with ONAP, K8s, ODL, and ONOS, and its application in a real SD-WAN use case. Delve into the agenda covering edge requirements, architecture, OpenConfig Yang models, RPC operations, cloud telemetry, key progress, release notes, UCPE SDK integration, future work, and the Universal Deep Packet Inspection (UDPI) project.
