Abstract:
An apparatus for cloud key management may include a networking interface, a memory, and a processor, coupled to the memory and the networking interface, the networking interface to couple the apparatus to one or more endpoint servers (EPSs) of a cloud service provider (CSP), each EPS including a hardware accelerator, and a management node (MN) of the CSP. The apparatus may further include an accelerator functional unit (AFU) developer interface module operated by the processor to receive cryptographic material (CM) for each of one or more AFU developers (AFUDs) and store it into the memory, the CM includes a public key hash (PKH), and an encryption key (EK) to decrypt an AFU of the AFUD. The apparatus may also include an EK communication module operated by the processor to: receive, from the MN, a request to send to a targeted EPS an encrypted lookup table (LUT), the LUT including PKHs and associated EKs for a set of the one or more AFUDs from which the targeted EPS is authorized to receive AFUs, and in response to the request, send, to the targeted EPS, the LUT.

Abstract:
In one embodiment, a node includes at least one core to independently execute instructions; a first host device to receive information from the at least one core and to include the information in a first packet of a first communication protocol; a selection logic coupled to the first host device to receive the first packet and to provide the first packet to a conversion logic or a first interface to communicate with a first device via a first interconnect of the first communication protocol; the conversion logic to receive the first packet under selection of the selection logic and to encapsulate the first packet into a second packet of a second communication protocol; and a second interface coupled to the conversion logic to receive the second packet and to communicate the second packet to a second device via a second interconnect of the second communication protocol. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
