Optimally balanced network systems

Abstract

In an aspect, a system for an optimally balanced networked system is disclosed. The system includes a fabric adapter communication system communicatively coupled to a plurality of network ports and a plurality of controlling hosts. The fabric adapter communication system is configured to receive a network packet from, or transmit a network packet to, a network port of the plurality of network ports. The fabric adapter communication system is configured to separate the network packet into different portions, each portion including a header or a payload. The fabric adapter communication system is configured to forward the headers of the different portions to one or more controlling hosts. The fabric adapter communication system is configured to forward multiple payloads of the different portions in parallel through a bundled interface to multiple memory buffers of a global memory pool based on one or more scatter gather lists (SGLs).

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
