论文摘要
通过对数据平面和控制平面进行编程，网络运营商可以将其网络调整为他们的需求。得益于过去十年的研究，这个概念在技术上更加可行。但是，由于控制平面的可编程性是首先的，因此它已经在真实网络中成功实施，并且已经开始回报。如今，数据平面的可编程性正在迅速发展以达到此水平，吸引了研究人员和开发人员的注意：设计数据平面语言，应用程序开发，制定可以运行数据平面代码和应用程序的软件开关和架构，提高软件开关的性能，等等。随着控制平面和数据平面变得越来越开放，许多新的创新和技术正在出现，但是一些专家警告说，消费者可能会对哪种技术选择中的哪种感到困惑。这证明了网络中正在出现多少创新。本文概述了数据平面上的一些新兴应用程序，并提供了进一步改进和优化的机会。我们的观察结果表明，大多数实现都是在测试环境中完成的，并且在性能方面的测试还不够好，但是有许多有趣的工作，例如，在数据平面中正在实现先前的控制平面解决方案。
By programming both the data plane and the control plane, network operators can adapt their networks to their needs. Thanks to research over the past decade, this concept has more formulized and more technologically feasible. However, since control plane programmability came first, it has already been successfully implemented in the real network and is beginning to pay off. Today, the data plane programmability is evolving very rapidly to reach this level, attracting the attention of researchers and developers: Designing data plane languages, application development on it, formulizing software switches and architecture that can run data plane codes and the applications, increasing performance of software switch, and so on. As the control plane and data plane become more open, many new innovations and technologies are emerging, but some experts warn that consumers may be confused as to which of the many technologies to choose. This is a testament to how much innovation is emerging in the network. This paper outlines some emerging applications on the data plane and offers opportunities for further improvement and optimization. Our observations show that most of the implementations are done in a test environment and have not been tested well enough in terms of performance, but there are many interesting works, for example, previous control plane solutions are being implemented in the data plane.
