PACKET BASED IN-LINE PROCESSING FOR DATA CENTER ENVIRONMENTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18216524 Titled 'PACKET BASED IN-LINE PROCESSING FOR DATA CENTER ENVIRONMENTS'
Simplified Explanation
This abstract describes an apparatus that has a host side interface to connect to multiple CPUs that support microservice endpoints. It also has a network interface to receive packets from a network, where each packet contains multiple frames belonging to different streams and formatted using a text transfer protocol. The apparatus includes circuitry to process these frames and extract the content of a microservice functional call embedded within one of the frames. It then executes the microservice function call.
Original Abstract Submitted
An apparatus is described. The apparatus includes a host side interface to couple to one or more central processing units (CPUs) that support multiple microservice endpoints. The apparatus includes a network interface to receive from a network a packet having multiple frames that belong to different streams, the multiple frames formatted according to a text transfer protocol. The apparatus includes circuitry to: process the frames according to the text transfer protocol and build content of a microservice functional call embedded within a message that one of the frames transports; and, execute the microservice function call.
