Abstract
Technologies for performing switch-based collective operations in a fabric architecture include a computing node that includes a host fabric interface (HFI) usable to communicate with network computing devices of the fabric architecture. The HFI is configured to associate an object with a transaction identifier generated by the HFI for a corresponding transactional synchronization session managed by the HFI of the computing node. Additionally, the HFI is configured to store received data associated with received write transaction that include the transaction identifier in a local buffer of the HFI. Upon receiving a transactional synchronization session termination request, the HFI is configured to initiate a write of the data stored in the local buffer of the HFI to one of the one or more data storage devices of the computing node. Other embodiments are described herein.
