Dear Snabb community,

Please find my details below and nice to meet the snabb community.

Q: Who are you, where are you from, and how are you doing? :-)

I'm Manoj from Sri Lanka and freelance software architect & developer. I'm developing telecom infrastructure software such as policy control and DPI last 18+ years. My main languages are C and Lua / python / java.

Q: What's your background?
(Programmer? network designer/operator/owner? freelancer? entrepreneur? general hobbyist? many/none of the above?)

I'm developer and R&D person. Specially tiny computing boards like raspberry PI and electronics combined projects.

Q: Why is Snabb Switch interesting to you?

It's simplified the core network programming and available as Lego blocks to develop as you wish.

Q: Do you have a cool project you'd like to do with Snabb Switch one day?

I'm currently working on POC (Proof of concept) project for QoS and firewall using snabb. I'm very new to snabb and still learning.

Q: Do you have a potential professional interest in Snabb Switch?
(e.g. would you like to use it at work, or get paid to hack on it, or start your own company around it, or hire people who can do stuff with it?)

Currently I'm working as hobby project and I will donate it to community. If any opportunity will consider it for commercial.

Q: Have you ever done a cool hack that you can tell us about (any topic)?
I was contributed to nDPI as my recent work.

Q: Do you have a friendly message to share with the other fine readers of the list?

Snabb is cool stuff as I was evaluating PF_RING and PFQ etc framework. Snabb is KISS and swiss army knife ;)

Q: What did I forget to ask?

Google is not giving much results for snabb errors or find some workaround. Any reason ? we need to enrich google search results with snabb stuff.

Thank you,
Manoj M

Welcome, Manoj! Thanks for the intro. :-)

I agree with you about making error messages for developers easier to
search for - we don't have a culture about posting about them, so we
probably duplicate each other's troubleshooting of low-hanging errors
surprisingly often.

Best regards,
Kat

Hi Katerina,

Thanks for your feedback and welcoming to the community. I'm still new to snabb and gradually grabs the concepts and inner working details. I'm looking some help regarding error I was got during my development. If someone can help to move forward it's great help.

I will post it in separate thread.

Nice to meet you and great snabb community. Wish you all Happy New Year!!!!

cheers,
Manoj M
