  1. 1 Intro
  2. 2 Modern datacenter networks are fast
  3. 3 Existing networking options sacrifice performance or generality
  4. 4 Specialization for fast networking
  5. 5 eRPC provides both speed and generality
  6. 6 Managing packet loss
  7. 7 In low-latency networks, switch buffers prevent most loss
  8. 8 All modern switches have buffers BDP
  9. 9 Low-overhead transport layer
  10. 10 Example: Optimized DMA buffer management for rare packet loss
  11. 11 Example: Efficient congestion control in software
  12. 12 Datacenter networks are usually uncongested
  13. 13 Congestion control, fast and slow
  14. 14 Easy integration with existing applications
  15. 15 Takeaway: Given fast packet 10, we can provide fast networking in software
  16. 16 Together, common case optimizations matter
