TCP Servers: Offloading TCP Processing in Internet Servers - Design, Implementation, and Performance
Overview TCP Server is a system architecture aiming to offload network processing from the host(s) running an Internet server. The TCP Server can be executed on a dedicated processor, node, or intelligent network interface using low-overhead, non-intrusive communication between it and the host(s) running the server application. This paper presents and evaluates two implementations of the TCP Server architecture: using dedicated network processors on a Symmetric Multiprocessor (SMP) server and using dedicated nodes on a cluster-based server built around a memory-mapped communication interconnect.
