We also take significant part in the Linux-foundation DPDK (dpdk.org) project, and expand the Mellanox PMD in particular, providing the framework and common API for fast packet processing in user space. Our goal is to enable breakthrough network performance, using our SmartNIC hardware capabilities and address the performance, scale and security demands of modern software-defined enterprise data centers and public cloud infrastructure.
