LITE Kernel RDMA Support for Datacenter Applications
Shin-Yeh Tsai, Yiying Zhang · 2017
Recently, there is an increasing interest in building data-center applications with RDMA because of its low-latency, high-throughput, and low-CPU-utilization benefits. However, RDMA is not readily suitable for datacenter applications. It lacks a flexible, high-level abstraction; its performance does not scale; and it does not provide resource sharing or flexible protection. Because of these issues, it is difficult to build RDMA-based applications and to exploit RDMA's performance benefits.
