Abstract

Some embodiments provide a method for, at a network interface controller (NIC) of a computer, accessing data in a network. From the computer, the method receives a request to access data stored at a logical memory address. The method translates the logical memory address into a memory address of a particular network device storing the requested data. The method sends a data message to the particular network device to retrieve the requested data.
