Technologies for dynamically transitioning network traffic host buffers of a network computing device include the software abstraction of one or more hardware queues of the network computing device based on a network flow type associated with network traffic received by the network computing device. The network computing device is configured to identify a queue transition event, completing pending transactions in one or more of the software abstracted queues, and transition the abstracted queues to handle the flow type associated with the queue transition event. Additionally, the network computing device is configured to realign the abstracted queues to be associated with one or more hardware components of the network computing device based on the second network traffic flow type, provide a ready indication to a client associated with the abstracted queues that indicates the abstracted queues are ready for polling, and process received network traffic associated with the second network traffic flow type in the abstracted queues. Other embodiments are described herein.
