SYSTEM, METHOD AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM FOR OFFLOADED COMPUTATION OF DISTRIBUTED APPLICATION PROTOCOLS WITHIN A CLUSTER OF DATA PROCESSING NODES

摘要

A data processing node includes a management environment, an application environment, and a shared memory segment (SMS). The management environment includes at least one management services daemon (MSD) running on one or more dedicated management processors thereof. One or more application protocols are executed by the at least one MSD on at least one of the dedicated management processors. The management environment has a management interface daemon (MID) running on one or more application central processing unit (CPU) processors thereof. The SMS is accessible by the at least one MSD and the MID for enabling communication of information of the one or more application protocols to be provided between the at least one MSD and the MID. The MID provides at least one of management service to processes running within the application environment and local resource access to one or more processes running on another data processing node.
