This document provides an agenda and overview for a hands-on lab on using DPDK in containers. It introduces Linux containers and how they use fewer system resources than VMs. It discusses how containers still use the kernel network stack, which is not ideal for SDN/NFV usages, and how DPDK can be used in containers to address this. The hands-on lab section guides users through building DPDK and Open vSwitch, configuring them to work with containers, and running packet generation and forwarding using testpmd and pktgen Docker containers connected via Open vSwitch.
