The Practice of Cloud Native NFV Infrastructure Networking on Arm Platform
summary
Shows a concrete Arm-first stack: Contiv/VPP images and Kubernetes templates with VPP data plane giving microsecond ping times versus Flannel’s seconds-level overlay, and Calico running natively on Arm with kernel routing and simple YAML deployment. Reports verified deployments (OVN, Calico, Contiv/VPP) and patches added for aarch64, SFC implemented via VPP and NSM enhanced for on‑demand L2/L3 links, Envoy sidecar examples enabled, and mixed results where Calico slightly outperforms OVN in pod‑to‑pod throughput.
