In Cilium version 1.14, deploying the Envoy proxy as a DaemonSet is supported, introducing intriguing deployment scenarios. One compelling option is transitioning these features to the DPUs. Modern SmartNICs and DPUs offer additional power-efficient compute capacity on servers with hardware accelerations tailored for specialized workloads. This study delves into an architecture for provisioning the Cilium Envoy Proxy to an OCTEON10 DPU, addressing challenges encountered in this process. The goal is to unlock the substantial compute potential of DPUs, optimizing resource utilization and enabling the host machine to handle an increased load of application workloads.
