Queens on SymKloud MS29

• Fully redundant hardware including PSUs,

switches and shelf managers

• Redundant OpenStack platform across

multiple compute nodes

• Optimized with 6WIND Virtual Accelerator

(DPDK) for line-rate speeds without breaking Neutron

• Bare Metal capabilities with Ironic for

workloads using PCIe GPU, FPGA, etc

• Deployment scripts and automation tools

to deploy multiple systems as compute nodes for scalability

SymKloud MS29 VS Commodity Servers

Power Consumption (Less Is Better)

SymKloud has the upper hand on power consumption by up to 4X SymKloud uses 4.5X less space than commodity servers

Total Cost of Ownership ($USD)

SymKloud is king on TCO when compared to public clouds and provides carrier grade equipment at commodity hardware price points

Comparison is made on the amount of systems required in order to run 32x 2vCPU (2 threads) with 8GB Memory, 30GB ephemeral storage per VM. Excludes outbound traffic fee for public clouds. All data sets are based on list price of systems from multiple vendors across system integrators from the US and Canada along with average colocation price across North America and the average American Kilowatt/hr Industrial price point of 2018 by their respective regulating entity. All public cloud prices were taken in February 2018. Data available upon request at our booth and by email to the Kontron Canada Inc. Marketing team.

Kubernetes on SymKloud MS29

• Fully redundant hardware including

PSUs, switches and shelf managers

• Redundant Kubernetes Masters for

true High Availability deployments

• Fixed an issue with K8S recovery when

the HAProxy instance dies

• Deployment scripts and automation

tools to deploy multiple systems as compute nodes for scalability

Container Density on SymKloud MS29

• Our focus, Bare Metal containers for all types of

workloads

• Why Bare Containers instead of VM containers?
• No virtualization overheads
• Lower network latency
• More CPU resources available per worker
• No need to deploy full fledged operating systems
• Easier to interface with PCIe devices such as GPU cards
• Some metrics about our capabilities
• Based on one MS2920 system with 18 sockets
• Network-wise, up to 3550 instances supported in a

2U system depending on your storage needs!

CPU Memory Instances 2 400Mi 166 1 200Mi 333 500m 150Mi 669 150m 100Mi 2234

Hardware Monetization & Scheduling

• Use cases showcased at our booth powered by Kubernetes:
• TensorFlow & Nvidia P4s GPU running image recognition algorithms
• https://blog.symkloud.com/fun-with-kubernetes-and-tensorflow-serving
• BlockChain implementation over Canonical Kubernetes to leverage idle

processor cycles for crypto-mining.

• https://itnext.io/opportunistically-mining-cryptocurrencies-in-kubernetes-

94934d095c4d

• Kubernetes still has a long way to be considered by Telcos:
• Flannel doesn’t support SDN/NFV use cases;
• No notion of MAC addresses is Kubernetes is a tremendous show stopper.

Announcements

Kontron Communications joined the Linux Foundation, Networking in January 2018 to get involved in open source communities. Kontron Communications joined the Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF) to further its momentum around Mobile Edge Computing. Kontron Communications is opening a new Pharos Lab in Montreal, QC. Anyone wanting access to the lab (we’re not keeping it to ourselves) can do so at SYMKLOUD.COM/OPNFV- PHAROS
