Awesome, this will be very useful.
It would be good to be able to assign physical network interfaces into the containers(using network namespaces) and also document how to create virtual network devices shared between containers.
Furthermore it would be awesome to make all this numa-aware. So you could have network interfaces and cpus and memory be assigned to a single container where everything is numa local. Then you could break up a single physical box into high performance independent domains.
- rmolina 6y agoThanks! Both of your suggestions sound very interesting. I personally like the idea of creating large network topologies with a very few outer containers: the real mesh would be at L2/L3 levels. You would launch your large topo with just a 'docker run'. The numa-aware idea would take some more research on our part, but at first glance looks like something that we could definitely explore.
