Industrial Impact

Lyra (SIGCOMM 2020) Lyra is under deployment in Alibaba as their main language and compiler for data plane programming.
Scouts (SIGCOMM 2020) Our PhyNet Scout was deployed in Microsoft production networks and significantly reduced the time-to-mitigation for incidents.
HPCC (SIGCOMM 2019) Intel and Mellanox implemented HPCC in their latest NICs as the default congestion control algorithm. Alibaba is deploying HPCC in their production networks. HPCC is now published as an IETF draft. Reported by Intelligent Data Centres (UK), Intelligent CIO (UK), Data Economy, it-daily.net (Germany), Info HighTech (France), Channel Business Partners (France), Le Mag IT, Animasoft, IT Numeric, Global Security Mag, M2M Mag, Intrusio
VideoEdge (SEC 2018) VideoEdge is part of Microsoft Rocket project for live video analytics. In particular the project is used for Vision Zero in Bellevue, Washington for active traffic monitoring of traffic intersections live 24×7.
CherryPick (NSDI 2017) CherryPick is commercialized as the HyperConfig product by a startup HyperPilot.
SilkRoad (SIGCOMM 2017) SilkRoad is implemented by major vendors such as Barefoot and Mellanox and adopted by cloud providers such as Alibaba and Tencent. Reported by SDXCentral, GlobeNewsWire
LossRadar (CoNEXT 2016) This technology is patented as a loss detection solution in Intel Barefoot.
Condor (SIGCOMM 2015) Condor is used to assist topology design in Google.
NOSIX (CCR 2014): The virtual flow table concept of NOSIX is adopted in the Fabric Sync tool in Big Cloud Fabric by Big Switch Networks
SNAP (NSDI 2011): SNAP was deployed in Microsoft data centers and helped developers uncover major performance problems in application software, the network stack on the server, and the underlying network.
