Intel® Network Builders University Introduces Virtual Evolved Packet Core (vEPC) Training Program
Intel® Network Builders University is excited to announce the addition of the new Virtual Evolved Packet Core (vEPC) Training Program. There are four new courses in the program to enhance your knowledge and technical depth around vEPC. Check out all the new courses on the Intel® Network Builders website.
– Virtual Evolved Packet Core Introduction: In this course you will get an introduction to vEPC and the drivers and opportunities in the industry. You will also learn about the Intel technologies supporting vEPC and the supporting ecosystem.
– Overview of Evolved Packet Core (EPC) Architecture: Learn about EPC functions and interworking and charging. In this course you will also get introduced to the challenges of EPC, traffic flow, quality of service, and using EPC for services.
– Virtual Evolved Packet Core (vEPC) Reference Architecture: Dive deeper into vEPC by understanding deployment of virtual network functions (VNFs) and basic service function chaining. You will also gain knowledge on vEPC scaling with helpful use cases and examples.
– Virtual Evolved Packet Core (vEPC) Additional Benefits: The name of this course says it all. Get more information on new LTE features and IoT architecture considerations. End the program by learning about workload placement and vEPC redundancies.
Intel Network Builders University has over 100 courses available across four languages (English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Chinese). Check back with the university regularly to see the new educational content being added each month.
The online portion of the university is available to all Intel Network Builders program members and the public through a simple registration here. Intel Network Builders University is one of three learning centers in Intel® Builders University, which also includes the Intel® Cloud Builders University and Intel® Storage Builders University. Registrants have access to all of the content in the three learning centers.
Please take a look, and after exploring the offerings, let us know what content you would like to see added to the university.

Technical Spotlight
How to Analyze Effective CPU Usage for DPDK-Based Applications
This recipe introduces a workflow to analyze Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK)-based packet processing workloads by running in parallel DPDK Empty Cycles tracing with Intel® VTune™ Amplifier and a custom collector gathering the network statistics.
Building the Networks of the Future: The Rise of the Scalable Data Plane
The network environment is changing dramatically, elevating the importance of a scalable, flexible, and performant data plane in processing and delivering application data. Tectonic shifts are happening in communications as the industry prepares itself for a wave of non-traditional data traffic generated by the Internet of Things, 5G use cases and services, and a new generation of "cloud-native" applications. These applications will have a heightened dependence on packet data, requiring communications service providers (CoSPs) to consider and plan for an enhanced data plane with next-generation intelligence and processing capabilities.
Out of the Box Network Developers Events
DPDK Summit and Hands-On Lab
DPDK 2018 Bangalore summit was a huge success! There was a great turnout by the India network developer community with 249 participants traveling from across India for the summit. The enthusiastic and highly energetic audience kept the speakers from 23 companies—including representatives from Intel, Ericsson,* Nokia,* Cavium,* HCL,* Cisco,* HPE,* Tata Communication,* and Red Hat*—on their toes with interesting questions. The following day, Intel hosted a well-attended hands-on lab where participants learned more about Centralized Emergency Traffic Optimizer with Intel® Network Edge Virtualization SDK, DPDK, and the Intel® NFV Infrastructure Enabling Kit.
DPDK Summit presentations will be posted at www.dpdk.org/events.

Flexible Support for New Protocol Processing with DPDK Using Dynamic Device Personalization
Dynamic device personalization (DDP) allows a DPDK application to enable identification of new protocols—for example, GTP, PPPoE, and QUIC—without changing the hardware. To address this new feature, a new capability has been enabled on the Intel® Ethernet 700 Series network adapters. The Intel® Ethernet 700 Series was designed from the ground up to provide increased flexibility and move to a programmable pipeline, allowing it to be customized to meet a wide variety of customer requirements. This webinar provides details on how to take advantage of this new capability and a live demo showcases a DPDK application identifying and spreading GTP and QUIC across multiple CPU cores.
