Explore a groundbreaking conference talk from NSDI '23 that introduces LemonNFV, an innovative NFV framework designed to consolidate heterogeneous network functions at line speed. Discover how this novel approach enables the interoperability of network functions built on different frameworks without requiring code modifications or incurring significant overhead. Learn about LemonNFV's unique features, including its ability to load multiple network functions into a single process at the binary level, utilize intercepted I/O for scheduling, and employ a restricted memory allocator for isolation. Gain insights into the experimental results demonstrating LemonNFV's capability to consolidate five complex network functions while maintaining performance comparable to ideal and state-of-the-art pure consolidation approaches, with minimal overhead ranging from 0.7% to 4.3%.
