EFFICIENT PROGRAMMATIC MEMORY ACCESS OVER NETWORK FILE ACCESS PROTOCOLS

摘要

Embodiments provide a method and system for transferring data between different computing devices (110, 150). Specifically, a communication session is established between the first computing device and the second computing device (210). The communication session may be established using a first communication protocol. The first computing device creates (230) a virtual memory object associated with one or more memory blocks of the first computing device. A path to the virtual memory object is created 240 and the path is transmitted 250 to the second computing device using the communication session. The second computing device may then read or write data to / from the virtual memory object using a second communication protocol different from the first communication protocol. Data is written to and read from the virtual memory object using the file system command.
