Open-Source Plan for v0.2.0 Release

Tentative date: 10/10/2022
Release: Arion v0.2.0
Release link: TBD

Release Summary

  • Background

    • Arion DP Arion DP cluster employing XDP/eBPF program for fast packet processing service
    • Arion Master, a regional/cluster level network metadata server
    • Arion Agent, a node level agent for local DP programming
    • Arion DP management service for Arion gateway resource management, configurations and deployment

  • Highlights of features and performance

    • Designed and Implemented e2e DP notification mechanism which supports transmitting OAM information through Data Plane
    • Achieved near direct CN-CN Redis application benchmark throughput(+94% for small packet size, 96%-110% for larger packet size)

Feature Development

Performance & Scalability

  • Achieved near direct CN-CN Redis application benchmark throughput(+94% for small packet size, 96%-110% for larger packet size)
  • Minimal cost for turning on DP notification at Arion DP(<3% in throughput)

Fundamental

  • Add multi-wings deployment support (PR#2)
  • Fixed virtual IP in-balanced allocation issue for better load balancing (PR#7)
