configurations. TRex is used as a traffic generator.
-#. **Container Topologies Orchestrated by K8s - Performance** - CSIT
- |release| introduced new tests of Container topologies connected over
- the memif virtual interface (shared memory interface). For these tests
- VPP vswitch instance runs in a Docker Container handling Intel x520 NIC
- 10GbE interfaces and connecting over memif (Master side) virtual
- interfaces to more instances of VPP running in Docker Containers with
- memif virtual interfaces (Slave side). All containers are orchestrated
- by Kubernetes, with Ligato for container networking. TRex is used as a
- traffic generator.

#. **DPDK Performance** - VPP is using DPDK code to control and drive
- the NICs and physical interfaces. Testpmd tests are used as a baseline to
- profile the DPDK sub-system of VPP. DPDK performance tests executed in
+ the NICs and physical interfaces. Tests are used as a baseline to
+ profile performance of the DPDK sub-system. DPDK tests are executed in
physical FD.io testbeds, focusing on Testpmd/L3FWD data plane performance for
Phy-to-Phy (NIC-to-NIC). Tests cover a range of NICs, 10GE and 40GE
interfaces, range of multi-thread and multi-core configurations.
