    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to an apparatus comprising: a descriptor format translator accessible to a driver. In some examples, the driver and descriptor format translator share access to transmit and receive descriptors. In some examples, based on a format of a descriptor associated with a device differing from a second format of descriptor associated with the driver, the descriptor format translator is to: perform a translation of the descriptor from the format to the second format and store the translated descriptor in the second format for access by the device. In some examples, the device is to access the translated descriptor; the device is to modify content of the translated descriptor to identify at least one work request; and the descriptor format translator is to translate the modified translated descriptor into the format and store the translated modified translated descriptor for access by the driver.

    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to receiving memory access requests in a first number of connections from one or more front-end clients destined to a storage system and consolidating the memory access requests to a second number of connections between a network device and the storage system, wherein the second number is less than the first number. In some examples, consolidating the memory access requests includes combining read commands with other read commands destined to the storage system among connections of the first number of connections and combining write commands with other write commands destined to a same storage system among connections of the first number of connections. In some examples, consolidating the memory access requests includes performing protocol conversion to a format accepted by the storage system. In some examples, read or write commands are identified based on content of a header of a received packet, wherein the received packet includes a read or write command.
