Edge component computing system having integrated FaaS call handling capability

Abstract:

An apparatus is described. The apparatus includes logic circuitry embedded in at least one of a memory controller, network interface and peripheral control hub to process a function as a service (FaaS) function call embedded in a request. The request is formatted according to a protocol. The protocol allows a remote computing system to access a memory that is coupled to the memory controller without invoking processing cores of a local computing system that the memory controller is a component of.
