Hi Patel, The customer consider that deploy DPDK application in Amazon VMs is very flexible and very easy global site deployment:
such as: they only need to buy a 2 lcores VM if a site only need 200Mbps throughput; buy one 4 lcores VM if the throughput is 400Mbps; the can buy different Amazon site VMs in US, German... for lower access latency; -----Original Message----- From: Patel, Rashmin N Sent: Saturday, September 27, 2014 12:41 AM To: Dong, Binghua; dev at dpdk.org Subject: RE: Hi all, does Amazon VMs supported DPDK or not? It really depends on the devices offered in the VM. If direct device assignment is not provided to a VM or if the node hypervisor doesn't have an optimized para-virtual interface to a VM, I don't see any benefit using DPDK in VMs. -----Original Message----- From: dev [mailto:dev-boun...@dpdk.org] On Behalf Of Dong, Binghua Sent: Friday, September 26, 2014 5:47 AM To: dev at dpdk.org Subject: [dpdk-dev] Hi all, does Amazon VMs supported DPDK or not? A customer plan to buy some global Amazon VMs to run their DPDK 1.3(will upgrade to DPDK1.6 or 1.7) based VPN applications on global sites. Thanks a lot;
