SC> Remote Direct Data Placement (rddp) SC> ----------------------------------- SC> 1) A (transport independent) protocol core to support direct data SC> placement from the NIC into specified memory, usually application SC> buffers. SC> 2) A (transport independent) protocol core layered on top of the direct SC> data placement protocol that specifies control of RDMA. SC> 3) A mapping of the direct data placement protocol and the RDMA control SC> protocol to SCTP. I have some questions. Whether it is supposed what server module will be inside the application (or in separate service)? This question has arisen because processes in the majority of operational systems have different address spaces. So, application should use mechanisms of memory sharing and cross-application interaction or RDMA module should be included into each application. And how to understand "transport independent" in this case? thanks, Best regards, Timur mailto:Timur@niist.ntu-kpi.kiev.ua
