OVN: New Approaches to Scale and Performance

This is two talks in one. In the first talk, Han presents "Baker", a new approach used by eBay to combine OVN with Kubernetes API server to meet the scalability and availability goal in a large scale production environment, and how it is integrated with Neutron Security Group to achieve micro-segmentation. This allows OVN to scale beyond the limits of OVSDB as the centralized data store.

In the second talk, Jun presents a new high-performance datapath for OVN. OVN has many advantages than other virtual networking solutions given its great architecture thus performant/extensible/scale, and it becomes the best virtual networking solution if you want to use OVS with openstack. In this presentation, Jun will show how to deploy openstack/OVN with yet another high performance OVS datapath, and deep dive on technical solutions addressing OVS datapaths outstanding issues. Jun will also give a live demo for the integration and present some performance benchmarks.
