<div dir="ltr">Network Function Virtualisation (NFV) is becoming a bigger and bigger deal with support for x86 in Cisco, Juniper and many other vendors improving by the week.
<div> </div>
<div>> Certainly is.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>VyOS (formerly Vyatta) I know is in use by a lot of cloud providers as it provides a fairly stable platform for basic routing / firewall / VPN termination but I wouldn't want to run "core" network roles on it.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>> Why not?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>VMWare and their NSX Edge Services Gateway is also looking to be an option for the cloud services space with quite advanced features aimed at cloud tenants wanting greater control over routing, firewall, load balancing and SSL VPN features.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>> Very nice, but pricey. There are alternative methods to achieve the same end result.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The offerings from Cisco (CSR1000V, NS-OSv) and Juniper (vSRX and vMX) are looking very promising also (licensing costs aside) for the possibility of running production network loads within x86 hardware.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>> Agreed, add the Brocade vRouter 5600 with Intel DPDK to that list, all of those options are pricey of course. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Just my 2c.</div>
