Method and apparatus for integration of communication links with a remote direct memory access protocol

   
   

In one embodiment, a server is provided. The server includes multiple application processor chips. Each of the multiple application processor chips includes multiple processing cores. Multiple memories corresponding to the multiple processor chips are included. The multiple memories are configured such that one processor chip is associated with one memory. A plurality of fabric chips enabling each of the multiple application processor chips to access any of the multiple memories are included. The data associated with one of the multiple application processor chips is stored across each of the multiple memories. In one embodiment, the application processor chips include a remote direct memory access (RDMA) and striping engine. The RDMA and striping engine is configured to store data in a striped manner across the multiple memories. A method for allowing multiple processors to exchange information through horizontal scaling is also provided.
