Has anyone considered using dpdk as a data path provider or VPP, or OVS?

Yes, we have considered that already and collaboration is welcome. our first finding:

  • VPP is fine for data path but also already incldes a full control plane so you double the work in erGW and there
  • OvS is "just" a DPDK enabled switch which might stear traffic to the EPC VNF bu should not be the implementation IMHO
