Smart network interface controller for caching distributed data

Abstract:

A request for data from a distributed table is received at a network interface controller system. The request for data from the distributed table is identified as a request to be processed by the network interface controller system instead of a processor of a host computer system. The requested data is requested and received from a memory of the computing host computer system via a computer interface of the network interface controller system. The received requested data is caused to be cached in a cache of the network interface controller system.
