Abstract
In general, this disclosure describes techniques for providing a hybrid data plane that can include a kernel-based data plane and a Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK)-based data plane. An example system includes a DPDK-based virtual router configured to send and receive packets via a physical network interface, and a kernel network stack configured to perform tunneling processing for packets destined to a containerized application and received by the DPDK-based virtual router via the physical interface.
