Abstract
Technologies for monitoring communication performance of a high performance computing (HPC) network include a performance probing engine of a source endpoint node of the HPC network. The performance probing engine is configured to generate a probe request that includes a timestamp of the probe request and transmit the probe request to a destination endpoint node of the HPC network communicatively coupled to the source endpoint node via the HPC network. The performance probing engine is additionally configured to receive a probe response from the destination endpoint node via the HPC network and to generate another timestamp that corresponds to the probe request having been received. Further, the performance probing engine is configured to determine a round-trip latency as a function of the probe request and probe response timestamps. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
