Description

The architecture of 6WINDGate distinguishes between the control plane and the data plane. Within the data plane, the fast path operates independently from the Linux OS on a specific set of processor cores. This fast path efficiently handles most network packets without the performance penalties associated with Linux overhead. It adopts a run-to-completion approach, allowing all cores to execute the same software, which can be dynamically allocated based on the demands of packet processing or Linux application needs. Only a few exceptional packets that necessitate intricate processing are sent to the Linux environment, where it handles necessary management, signaling, and control tasks. Additionally, packet processing data that is set up or learned through control plane protocols in Linux is seamlessly synchronized with the fast path, ensuring that the fast path's presence remains entirely unobtrusive for both Linux and its applications. This design enables optimal performance while maintaining a clear separation between processing layers.

Description

Calico is a versatile open-source solution designed for networking and securing containers, virtual machines, and workloads on native hosts. It is compatible with a wide array of platforms such as Kubernetes, OpenShift, Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (MKE), OpenStack, and even bare metal environments. Users can choose between leveraging Calico's eBPF data plane or utilizing the traditional networking pipeline of Linux, ensuring exceptional performance and true scalability tailored for cloud-native applications. Both developers and cluster administrators benefit from a uniform experience and a consistent set of features, whether operating in public clouds or on-premises, on a single node, or across extensive multi-node clusters. Additionally, Calico offers flexibility in data planes, featuring options like a pure Linux eBPF data plane, a conventional Linux networking data plane, and a Windows HNS data plane. No matter if you are inclined toward the innovative capabilities of eBPF or the traditional networking fundamentals familiar to seasoned system administrators, Calico accommodates all preferences and needs effectively. Ultimately, this adaptability makes Calico a compelling choice for organizations seeking robust networking solutions.
