Abstract
A method includes determining an address associated with a data transform command in a container data structure which is in the data transform accelerator. The data transform accelerator is in communication with a host computing unit. In response to a determination that the address is in the container data structure, the method includes accessing the data transform command based on the address. The data transform command is in the host computing unit. The method includes obtaining metadata based on information in the data transform command. The metadata is in the data transform accelerator or spread out in the host computing unit memory and in the memory of data transform accelerator. The method includes configuring a data transform pipeline based on the metadata. The metadata can be shared in its entirety or partially by multiple data transform commands grouped together.
