Panel: Blurring the gap between software and hardware in networks
- Alec Wolman, Lihua Yuan, Daniel Firestone | Microsoft
- Microsoft Research Summit 2021 | The Future of Cloud Networking
Over the years we have made and continue to make investments on exerting fuller software control on traditionally opaque hardware such as switches and routers as well as on moving traditionally software functionality into hardware accelerators. In this panel, we bring together product and research perspectives on the case for these efforts, where we are and what to expect in the near and far future.
