Abstract
Techniques are described for offloading remote direct memory operations (RDMOs) to “execution candidates”. The execution candidates may be any hardware capable of performing the offloaded operation. Thus, the execution candidates may be network interface controllers, specialized co-processors, FPGAs, etc. The execution candidates may be on a machine that is remote from the processor that is offloading the operation, or may be on the same machine as the processor that is offloading the operation. Details for certain specific RDMOs, which are particularly useful in online transaction processing (OLTP) and hybrid transactional/analytical (HTAP) workloads, are provided.
