Key Benefits of 6WIND’s vHNA
Kubernetes Integration: Seamlessly deploy and manage vHNA within Kubernetes clusters, enhancing your network’s agility and efficiency.
Accelerated Data Plane: Our proprietary accelerated data plane technology ensures unmatched performance, delivering high throughput and low latency essential for Telco applications.
Telco-Grade Performance: Achieve high throughput and low latency, ensuring superior performance for demanding Telco workloads.
Scalability: Effortlessly scale your network to meet increasing demands, leveraging Kubernetes for automated scaling and management.
Enhanced Security: Protect your network with advanced security features, including network isolation via VRF support, firewall capabilities, and robust access controls (ACL).
Comprehensive Management: Utilize intuitive management tools and APIs to simplify operations and automate network functions
Kubernetes-based Cloud Platforms
The 6WIND vHNA seamlessly integrates with Kubernetes-based cloud platforms and is natively managed by Kubernetes. This transparent integration allows K8S clusters and their nodes to be created with the desired connectivity and dynamically managed without requiring any network modifications.
As a result, Kubernetes Pods are directly routed to the fabric, reducing host network address translations and lowering processing overhead.
