摘要

网络功能虚拟化（NFV）带来灵活性的同时也面临极大的问题，因为承载网络功能的虚拟机可能会引入显著的性能开销。针对此问题，提出了一种名为MicroNF的新型高性能可编程框架，将可编程硬件基础设施与NFV中的传统软件基础设施相结合，以实现高性能和灵活性。MicroNF利用微服务—— 一种软件架构中的新设计方法，重新构建NFV，以实现服务之间的功能可重用性并提高性能。基于OpenStack和ONetCard的实验平台实现了MicroNF。实验结果表明，与基于DPDK的软件实现相比，MicroNF将服务链的平均转发时延降低了70%。

Abstract

Network function virtualization (NFV) brought significant flexibility.However

such flexibility came with considerable compromises

since virtual machine carried monolithic functions could introduce significant performance overhead.A novel high-performance and programmable framework called MicroNF was proposed

which combines programmable hardware infrastructure and traditional software infrastructure in NFV to achieve both high performance and flexibility.In particular

microservice

a new design approach in software architecture

was leveraged by MicroNF to re-architect NFV to enable functional reusability among services and improve performance.MicroNF was implemented in a test bed based on OpenStack and ONetCard.Experimental results show that MicroNF reduces the forwarding latency of a service chain by an average of 70% compared with DPDK-based software implementation.
