REMOTE ASYMMETRIC TCP CONNECTION OFFLOAD OVER RDMA

摘要

A method includes, in a source server, generating data that is to be sent over a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) connection to a destination server. The data is transferred from the source server to an offload server using Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA), while bypassing a local TCP stack of the source server. The data is assembled in the offload server in accordance with the TCP, and the assembled data is forwarded over the TCP connection to the destination server.
