Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK)

The Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK) is a set of software tools that allows high-speed data processing directly on a computer’s network hardware, such as network cards. It enables applications to handle large volumes of network traffic efficiently by bypassing traditional operating system layers, reducing latency and increasing throughput. DPDK is widely used in telecommunications, data centers, and security systems to improve network performance and manage real-time data flows effectively.
