    Abstract: Technologies for performing switch-based collective operations in a fabric architecture include a network switch communicatively coupled to a plurality of computing nodes. The network switch is configured to identify sub-operations of a collective operation of a collective operation request received from one of the computing nodes and identify a plurality of operands for each of the sub-operations. The network switch is additionally configured to request a value for each of the operands from a corresponding target computing node at which the respective value is stored, determine a result of the collective operation as a function of the requested operand values, and transmit the result to the requesting computing node. Other embodiments are described herein.

    Abstract: Technology for a controller in a storage area network (SAN) node operable to perform data requests is described. The controller can receive a data request from a remote node. The data request can specify a data payload and a type of operation associated with the data request. The controller can select a kernel from a kernel table stored in the memory based on a set of rules. The kernel can be matched to the data request in accordance with the set of rules. The kernel can be configured using a bit stream. The controller can execute the kernel in order to perform the data request in accordance with the data payload and the type of operation.

    Abstract: A computing device, method and system to implement an adaptive compression scheme in a network fabric. The computing device may include a memory device and a fabric controller coupled to the memory device. The fabric controller may include processing circuitry having logic to communicate with a plurality of peer computing devices in the network fabric. The logic may be configured to implement the adaptive compression scheme to select, based on static information and on dynamic information relating to a peer computing device of the plurality of peer computing devices, a compression algorithm to compress a data payload destined for the peer computing device, and to compress the data payload based on the compression algorithm. The static information may include information on data payload decompression supported methods of the peer computing device, and the dynamic information may include information on link load at the peer computing device. The compression may further take into consideration QoS requirements of the data payload. The computing device may send the data payload to the peer computing device after compressing.

    Abstract: Apparatus, methods, and system for implementing cluster-wide operational metrics access for coordinated agile scheduling. One embodiment of the apparatus includes a memory to store instructions; a processing circuitry to execute instructions; and an interface circuitry. The interface circuitry to provide metrics associated with the apparatus to one or more subscriber nodes or network components in a managed cluster and to subscribe, via a metrics subscription request, to receive from one or more publisher nodes or network components in the managed cluster, metrics associated with the one or more publisher nodes or network components. The metrics to be stored in a dedicated location of the memory. The provision and subscription of metrics may be made using new protocols added to Layer 4 or transport layer of a network communication model and/or over a dedicated communication channel. The dedicated communication channel may be of low bandwidth with fixed priority and deterministic latency.
