Memory fabric operations and coherency using fault tolerant objects

An object memory fabric comprising:

• a plurality of hardware-based processing nodes, each hardware-based processing node comprising:
• one or more memory modules storing and managing a plurality of memory objects in a hierarchy of the object memory fabric, wherein each memory object is created natively within the one or more memory modules through a name space of the object memory fabric, each memory object is accessed by applications executing on the hardware-based processing node using a single memory reference instruction without Input/Output (I/O) instructions by the applications, and each memory object is managed by the one or more memory modules through the name space of the object memory fabric at a single memory layer without distinction between memory and storage, and
• a node router communicatively coupled with each of the one or more memory modules of the node and adapted to route memory objects or portions of memory objects between the one or more memory modules of the node;
• and
• one or more inter-node routers communicatively coupled with each node router, wherein each of the plurality of nodes of the object memory fabric is communicatively coupled with at least one of the inter-node routers and adapted to route memory objects or portions of memory objects between the plurality of nodes.

A method for providing coherency and fault tolerance in an object memory fabric comprising a plurality of hardware-based processing nodes, the method comprising:

• creating, by the hardware-based processing nodes of the object-based memory fabric, each memory object natively within a memory module of a hardware-based processing node through a name space of the object memory fabric;
• accessing, by the hardware-based processing nodes, each memory object using a single memory reference instruction without Input/Output (I/O) instructions;
• and
• managing, by the hardware-based processing nodes, each memory object within a memory module through the name space of the object memory fabric at a single memory layer without distinction between memory and storage.
