 Great. Let's go ahead and get started. The CNET, are you able to share your screen? Trying to get mine on. Yes, I can. So this is our second Birds of the Feather for CNET test bed. Upcoming events, which I don't think we probably could drop on the schedule. So upcoming significant for the test bed and probably for folks on here would be the ONS and San Jose and the start of April. And we're also looking at KubeCon, Barcelona in May. There's some other periphery events that folks may be attending if they are. You can drop those in or speak up now. If you have any specific items you'd like to talk about, please add them to the notes. On the project itself, for the last several weeks, the main focus has been around getting things updated on the testing between OpenStack and Kubernetes across the public hardware that's coming available on packet. The last meeting, we talked about the announcement from packet on some of the Telco focused hardware with the Intel X10s, mobile connectivity. Some of those have come into place with new facilities, but not everything is online. So we're doing some early access testing with the Intel Network Card enabled systems and waiting for those to become fully publicly available. I know some of those are starting to get tested with Sprint and other folks, but the inventory hasn't increased enough for public demand yet. But that'll continue happening over the next couple of months, I think. So we'll see more of those this month. Looking at taking feedback on the different environments, building out those clusters and rolling those in as far as tuning and everything else would be the high level on that type of thing. And the other items tie in to looking at some other projects like Network Service Smash. There's some overlap in with use cases from that side. One of the most interesting use cases I think that we were looking at last year and is coming up again is how to replicate things that may be used right now in the VNF world like SIOV and other acceleration that you would use in VMs. And then what would that look like if you did an equivalent on the cloud native side? And we had tested some of those type of setups even with the VMs in the test bed last year and what it would look like as far as the type of access you'd see in containers. So we're going to look more at use cases like that, but we haven't had a use case presented by any specific telco or vendor where it's fully defined. So I think that's an area where we'd really like to have more input on what would be useful as a next set of use cases. We do have the ONAP Linux Foundation's ONAP project has a bunch of use cases and in fact the ones that we've used right now, the slide deck that you can see from Dan, those were based originally on this. So we'll definitely continue down that path looking at firewall use cases, load balancing, some of the functional use cases, as well as more performance. We'd love to have input on any specific use cases, ideally where we can do either direct contributions to building out the use case or defining exactly what it is for a clean room implementation since we're trying to do 100% open source on the side versus the proprietary. So we'd take something and rebuild that so that everyone can replicate it. Of course, a full contribution of use cases would be the best. That's, I think, an overview. I'll drop some links to various like the network service mesh use cases that I was referring to, quite a bit of those. And I'm not sure if anyone's on the call that's been on any of those. I'm not noticing in the list here, but I can drop some links to some of those slides. And does anyone here know of any particular use case or testing that would be a focus that they'd like to see? Dan, do you have any specific topics you would like to discuss right now? I don't actually. I just be curious if any of the new folks on phone have topics they want to jump in on. Yeah, so this is Gunner here. And then along with that is the clerk and I think that this came up on the other call to an NSM call, but it keeps coming up. It's around the SRIOV use case. And yeah, in my past life, I saw this used extensively. And I don't necessarily even see that as a smart nick because I mean, I know it's coming from Intel, but most people are on X86 anyways. And those Nick cards are not as expensive as some of the other pure play vendors that are focused on the offload cards. But it was quite prevalent, not just for performance, but also just for security where we saw this being used and really sending all the traffic, all the switching was done. So there was SRIOV on, of course, the note itself, but then we saw a lot of switching being done on the top of a rack switch. And then you would kind of go back and forth, even though you may have different types of VNFs. Now this is in the KVM hypervisor world. Now things may be a little different or they will be different, of course, with pods and containers. So yeah, there was definitely the element of performance, but also in this multi-tenant environment, which we were working in, is they wanted this particular customer and others wanted all the switching to be done on the top of a rack switch. And then so, but we would be interested Dennis and I in working, setting something up on packet and exploring that further. And it keeps coming up on the other call to an NSM call and it does seem to be widespread. So I think we can add value there. We do have an account on packet that, you know, we can leverage. That sounds great. We, there's some KVM as well as Docker without any type of orchestration testing that we did in the CNF test bed. It's under, if you look in the comparison area, it's under the box by box section. And there was that most of that was building blocks to go to other things. And we, with the KVM, we were looking at different ways of how we're going to connect directly to the cards at that time. What we could build to to create some of the use case that we're doing now. So I think what, even if it's something that is KVM, if it's something that at a minimum can be described and documented like here's the specifications for how it would be laying out. That would be useful, even if we're going to take that and maybe convert it to be something that runs on open sack with acceleration of the those the VMs himself with SRV ports. But that would be a great contribution, I think. And then we can look at what is the equivalent setup for something on Kubernetes, which is not likely to be a one to one, but more of here is how it's done in the VM world. And what would you do to get the equivalent type of setup and benefits if you're going the other way? Yeah, yeah, so we're, yeah, so that's what we did use. Yeah, we previously worked a lot with KVM, but now of course we're most interested in cloud native. So, yeah, I think we'll set up some time, maybe we could discuss this offline Taylor, if you're open to it with Dennis and myself and you. Sounds good. Okay, thanks Taylor, I'll ping offline and we could set up something maybe later this week when you have some spare cycles. Any other topics, use cases, anything folks would like to talk about. Is there anyone familiar with an arm in the telco world? I'm wondering if that would be a topic of interest. Okay. I know that there's a separate project that has some overlap into the scene of test fed for CI, where we're focused on adding arm support. I was a little bit interested in that packet the provider has a lot of arm activity, as far as machines, and then with them trying to add support for telco specific configurations and to their server types, as well as adding direct connections into like mobile towers that different providers. There could be some interesting things there. So if there's any specific use cases that may require, rather than say a specific hardware Nick, but maybe configurations that are require specific type of connections out or non commodity hardware would be interested in hearing that. It could be machines with a large number of cores. Large different types of memory configuration, including smaller resources, but maybe high speed mix. If anyone has thoughts on those from real world use cases, that's what we're really looking at helping, but for talking with packet. Since they've taken direct directions on us and all the configurations. So if you have any thoughts on that for real world use cases. I would love to hear this. And as is the presentation. Is there anything right now that you'd like to show as far as going through any of the slides or is there anything to look at right now. We're going to have an 80 minute workshop at on us. I don't know that it's scheduled yet. And so that's going to be a good opportunity I think to bring in a lot of new folks into the project and then begin to address some ideas or questions. And I'm also going to have a five minute keynote where I give a shout out to this project to encourage people to participate. And there's a boss at cube con Barcelona too. So are there any other events that folks know of. Thanks for the shout out on the auto project from a P and I see by the way for the arm based project from Tina. Are there any other events or projects that folks would like to bring some attention to. Okay, I think we can close this one out and have some more information on the next one. Please invite folks that are interested in these use creating use cases. Trying to make a reusable test bed and doing these comparisons across the different environments and buy them to the next boss. It's the next one I believe is going to be potentially in person. The April 1 meeting will not be on zoom. So we'll be at the open on us and send us a probably have some in person and there and we'll post about that as soon as we can put something together. The next online there is April 15. So if you're in San Jose, please let us know. I'll just see you and get together. Thanks everyone. Thank you. Thanks.
