Open Programmable Infrastructure Project - DPU and IPU Demos and Lab Implementations

Explore a 42-minute conference presentation from the Storage Developer Conference (SDC) 2023 demonstrating the Open Programmable Infrastructure (OPI) project's proof-of-concept implementations and laboratory developments. Dive into this Linux Foundation open-source initiative that establishes standardized APIs for SmartNICs, DPUs, IPUs, and other coprocessors. Learn how OPI enables uniform device provisioning and orchestration, allowing seamless handling of diverse devices without requiring new command structures. Discover how manufacturers benefit from standardized APIs, faster device delivery, and an expanded ecosystem. Through practical demonstrations, examine the reference implementations of Cloud Networking API, IPSec, storage, and regression testing efforts developed by the OPI community. Understand the laboratory infrastructure being utilized to test and showcase OPI's advantages for these emerging device classes. Intel's Dan Daly and OPI Project's Paul Pindell guide you through the collaboration between OPI and SNIA, featuring comprehensive API demonstrations focusing on both general implementation and storage-specific applications.
