Abstract
A server apparatus comprises a plurality of server on a chip nodes interconnected to each other through a node interconnect fabric. Each one of the server on a chip nodes has respective memory resources integral therewith. Each one of the server on a chip nodes has information computing resources accessible by one or more data processing systems. Each one of the server on a chip nodes is configured with memory access functionality enabling allocation of at least a portion of said memory resources thereof to one or more other ones of the server on a chip nodes and enabling allocation of at least a portion of said memory resources of one or more other ones of the server on a chip nodes thereto based on a workload thereof.
