OpenStack supports many different connectivity models, which becomes important for both traditional enterprise use cases and NFV workloads. This includes high performance VMs using DPDK, direct NIC access VMs using SRIOV and bare metal hosts. Today in Neutron it is difficult to bring all of these models together and allow full configuration flexibility. We will show VM and bare metal deployment on common networks using Neutron, Heat and Horizon, with high performance networking between all elements.
