NETWORK INTERFACE DEVICE MANAGEMENT OF SERVICE EXECUTION FAILOVER

Abstract:

Examples described herein relate to a network interface device that comprises circuitry, when operational, to select a platform to execute a function and based on load of the platform, selectively cause the function to execute on one or more other platforms to attempt to achieve or finish before the time-to-completion. In some examples, the circuitry is to detect progress of function execution to determine whether completion of execution of the function is predicted to not finish within the time-to-completion and cause the function to execute on one or more other platforms based on completion of execution of the function predicted to not finish within the time-to-completion. In some examples, the circuitry is to select the one or more other platforms to execute the function based on one or more of: processor computing utilization, available memory capacity, available cache capacity, network availability, or malfunction of a processor, memory, and/or cache.
