Abstract
With the evolution of the internet, we see a huge spike in the number of network users. The range of generated internet traffic in most of the various locations is increasing rapidly. The latest networking environment should deliver high throughput, high speed, high bandwidth, and fewer delay properties. Else it leads to data loss which is costly in packet processing. This survey contributes to finding a faster software solution to packet processing framework to overcome the challenges faced by traditional networks. This paper aims at packet acquisition and distribution methods based on packet processing models such as Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK), Netmap, Netslice, and PF-RING. And come up with a model which can productively decrease packet loss, successively enhance the performance rate and reduce resource waste. Comparison between the packet processing frameworks depicts that DPDK based data processing has dominance over Netmap, Netslice, and PF-RING in packet processing.
