Technical Overview
Engineering breakdown of Optimizing 1.2Tbps Volumetric DDoS Scrubbing (8490). Bare-metal hardware performance requires isolated kernel parameters, custom eBPF filters, and a zero‑copy packet path to sustain line‑rate inspection without dropping legitimate traffic.
Key Challenges
- Packet processing at >150 Mpps per scrubbing node
- Maintaining sub‑microsecond latency for clean traffic
- Dynamic scaling across multi‑region PoPs
Our solution combines DPDK‑accelerated NICs, XDP‑based early drop, and a distributed state‑sync layer built on gRPC‑over‑QUIC.
