IN-NETWORK COMPUTE OPERATIONS UTILIZING ENCRYPTED COMMUNICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18230588 titled 'IN-NETWORK COMPUTE OPERATIONS UTILIZING ENCRYPTED COMMUNICATIONS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an interface and circuitry that can establish secure connections over Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) with two network interface devices.

  • The circuitry acts as an endpoint for a Transport Layer Security (TLS) over RDMA connection with the first network interface device.
  • The circuitry also acts as an endpoint for a TLS over RDMA connection with the second network interface device.
  • It provides a transport layer endpoint for the packets received from the first network interface device.
  • It also provides a transport layer endpoint for the packets received from the second network interface device.


Original Abstract Submitted

Examples described herein relate to an interface and circuitry coupled to the interface. The circuitry can provide an endpoint for a Transport Layer Security (TLS) over Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) connection with a first network interface device, provide an endpoint for a TLS over RDMA connection with a second network interface device, provide a transport layer endpoint for the packets received from the first network interface device, and provide a transport layer endpoint for the packets received from the second network interface device.
