A distributed interconnect may be employed in information management environments to distribute functionality, for example, among processing engines of an information management system and/or processing modules thereof. Distributive interconnects such as switch fabrics and virtual distributed interconnect backplanes, may be employed to establish independent paths from node to node and thus may be used to facilitate parallel and independent operation of each processing engine of a multi-processing engine information management system, e.g. to provide peer-to-peer communication between the engines on an as-needed basis. These and other features of distributed interconnects may be advantageously employed to optimize information management systems operations in a variety of system configurations.
A system for loading an executable image on to at least one image receiver, said system comprising:
A method of loading an executable image on to at least one image receiver, said method comprising:
A system for interfacing a first processing object with a second processing object, said system comprising:
A method of interfacing a first processing object with a second processing object, said method comprising interfacing said second processing object with said first processing object across a distributed interconnect;
A system for managing a processing object, said system comprising:
A method of managing at least one processing object, said method comprising managing said processing object across a distributed interconnect.
The method of method 87, wherein said management entity comprises a separate processing engine.
A method of coordinating a group of multiple processing engines in the performance of an operating task, said method comprising broadcasting a multicast message to said group of multiple processing engines across a distributed interconnect, said multicast facilitating the performance of said operating task.
A method of analyzing software code running on a first processing engine, said method comprising communicating debug information associated with said code from said first processing engine to a second processing engine across a distributed interconnect.
The method of claim 1232, wherein said first and second processing engines comprise components of a content delivery system.
A method of managing the manipulation of information among a group of multiple processing engines in an information management environment, each of said processing engines being capable of performing one or more information manipulation tasks, said method comprising:
