Title

Golang Bindings for VPP TCP Stack

Status

PENDING TSC REVIEW

Difficulty

LOWMEDIUMHIGH


Description 

VPP provides a host stack that supports TCP, UDP, and QUIC.  The VPP transport stack is both much more scalable and much more performant than the kernel transport stack.  Golang is a very commonly used Cloud Native Development langauge.  Because Golang utilizes its own net.Listener and net.Conn instead of the C style BSD socket API, it should be much easier to produce a drop in replacement binding to the VPP TCP stack rather than the kernel stack.  This project is scoped to:


  1. Write and test a Golang binding for the VPP TCP stack
  2. Benchmark Golang+VPP vs Golang+Kernel
  3. Prepare and present an FD.io Webinar on the experience
  4. Optionally, if things go smoothly, there may be an opportunity to explore a Golang binding for the VPP QUIC stack.
