Object memory data flow instruction execution

An object memory fabric comprising:

• a plurality of hardware-based processing nodes, each hardware-based processing node comprising:
• one or more memory modules, each memory module comprising a hardware component installed in the hardware-based processing node, each memory module storing and managing a plurality of memory objects, wherein each memory object is created natively within the memory module through an object name space of the object memory fabric, each memory object is accessed by applications without additional, explicit Input/Output (I/O) instructions by the applications, and each memory object is managed by the memory module through the object name space of the object memory fabric without distinction between permanent storage and temporary memory and without distinction between local and remote location of memory objects on the memory fabric based on one or more executable trigger instructions defined in metadata for each memory object, wherein the metadata defining each executable trigger instruction defines one or more pre-defined actions to be performed on a per-block basis with respect to one or more data blocks and defines sequences of instructions, the sequences of instructions are executed and managed based on access of data of one or more of the memory objects wherein the metadata is local to the memory object and is stored within the memory object for which the executable trigger instruction is defined, 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 storing and managing one or more memory objects in an object memory fabric, the method comprising:

• creating, through an object name space of the object memory fabric each memory object natively within a memory module of a hardware-based processing node of the object memory fabric;
• accessing, by one or more applications, each memory object through the object name space of the object memory fabric using a memory reference instruction without additional, explicit Input/Output (I/O) instructions by the applications;
• and
• managing each memory object within the memory module through the object name space of the object memory fabric without distinction between permanent storage and temporary memory and without distinction between local and remote location of memory objects on the memory fabric using a set of metadata defined for each memory object based on one or more executable trigger instructions for each memory object defined in metadata for each memory object, wherein the metadata defining each executable trigger instruction defines one or more pre-defined actions to be performed on a per-block basis with respect to one or more data blocks and defines sequences of instructions, the sequences of instructions are executed and managed based on access of data of one or more of the memory objects, wherein the metadata is local to the memory object and is within the memory object for which the executable trigger instruction is defined.
