Deep Dive: Interoperability Challenges
- Part 4: CNF Interoperability Challenges between Challenges between workload/platform and orchestrator/workload
- CNI – is this the only answer?
- Other networking frameworks (eg., Istio, Envoy)?
- Networking abstraction – how do we push this past the goal line, publish, and test?
- Data Plane
- If performance tuning is a source of interop issues, how do we address these?
- Are data plane issues as opaque to workloads as claimed (should we do a survey, or testing experiment to have non-anecdotal data)?

Review of Doctor project on collaboration -
Other networking frameworks (eg., Istio, Envoy)?
Layer 4-7 topics: Should RA2 investigate? - Yes
Network Function Vendors - App layer Domain - need input from CNF suppliers
Linkerd
Service Mesh Interface (SMI) from MSFT: https://smi-spec.io/
need to identify SMI projects
CNCF project Network Service Mesh - Layer2
Consider it as Layer 2-3
Open Service Mesh: https://openservicemesh.io/
Networking abstraction – how do we push this past the goal line, publish, and test? No feedback
- Data Plane
- If performance tuning is a source of interop issues, how do we address these?
- anecdotal information indicated however seems to be solved by the DP platform selected
- Can RA-2 specify performance? if not, where?
- Are data plane issues as opaque to workloads as claimed (should we do a survey, or testing experiment to have non-anecdotal data)?
- If performance tuning is a source of interop issues, how do we address these?
- Service Mesh discussion - Olivier -
- Nodus can supports
Action Items
- Discussion on Cloud Networking CNI feature requirements
- Create a new project in Anuket to resolve the issue? Ask Victor Morales to participate. Evangelize the Mission statement (intervention?)
- Bob Monkman - potential of Intel supporting
- Anuket to discuss a "task force" - potentially based on the Doctor Project
- Scot Steele to review Dr. project to look at collaboration
- Ashiq Khan
- Riota Tetsuya
- Victor Morales -
- Data plane issues - research where to set standards
- Anuket TSC should consider
