Data transfer system, data transfer device, and data transfer method

A data transfer device comprising:

• a distribution unit, including one or more processors, configured to respectively distribute a plurality of pieces of data generated by a data generator to distribution destinations having priorities corresponding to priorities of the respective pieces of data in accordance with the priorities of the pieces of data determined depending on usage situations of the pieces of data in a remote computer;
• a generation unit, including one or more processors, configured to consolidate a plurality of pieces of data respectively distributed to the distribution destinations into each chunk having a size greater than or equal to a certain size, in order from one of the distribution destinations having a high priority, wherein the generation unit is configured to withhold performing consolidation of highest priority data having a highest priority and a size less than or equal to a certain size into a chunk having a size greater than or equal to the certain size;
• and
• a transmission unit, including one or more processors, configured to store each of the chunks in a ring structured memory, and transmit each of the chunks from the ring structured memory using a Remote Direct Memory Access protocol to a data transfer device at a timing when the plurality of pieces of data is consolidated into each of the chunks.

A data transfer method performed by a data transfer device, the data transfer method comprising:

• respectively distributing a plurality of pieces of data generated by a data generator to distribution destinations having priorities corresponding to priorities of the respective pieces of data in accordance with the priorities of the pieces of data determined depending on usage situations of the pieces of data in a remote computer;
• consolidating a plurality of pieces of data respectively distributed to the distribution destinations into each chunk having a size greater than or equal to a certain size, in order from one of the distribution destinations having a high priority, wherein consolidating comprises withholding performing consolidation of highest priority data having a highest priority and a size less than or equal to a certain size into a chunk having a size greater than or equal to the certain size;
• storing each of the chunks in a ring structured memory;
• and
• transmitting each of the chunks from the ring structured memory using a Remote Direct Memory Access protocol to a data transfer device at a timing when the plurality of pieces of data is consolidated into each of the chunks.
