Non-invasive performance prediction of high-speed softwarized network services with limited knowledge

Résumé

Modern telco networks have experienced a significant paradigm shift in the past decade, thanks to the proliferation of network softwarization. Despite the benefits of softwarized networks, the constituent software data planes cannot always guarantee predictable performance due to resource contentions in the underlying shared infrastructure. Performance predictions are thus paramount for network operators to fulfill ServiceLevel Agreements (SLAs), especially in high-speed regimes (e.g., Gigabit or Terabit Ethernet). Existing solutions heavily rely on in-band feature collection, which imposes non-trivial engineering and data-path overhead. This paper proposes a non-invasive performance prediction approach, which complements state-ofthe-art solutions by measuring and analyzing low-level features ubiquitously available in the network infrastructure. Accessing these features does not hamper the packet data path. Our approach does not rely on prior knowledge of the input traffic, VNFs’ internals, and system details. We show that (i) low-level hardware features exposed by the NFV infrastructure can be collected and interpreted for performance issues, (ii) predictive models can be derived with classical ML algorithms, (iii) and can be used to predict performance impairments in real NFV systems accurately. Our code and datasets are publicly available.
