iWARP, RDMA and TOE

I have captured some basic information on iWARP, RDMA, TOE and RDMA communication....

Remote Direct Access Memory Access (RDMA) allows data to be transferred over a network from the memory of one computer to the memory of another computer without CPU intervention. There are 2 types of RDMA hardware: Infiniband and RDMA over IP (iWARP). OpenFabrics Enterprise Distribution (OFED) stack provides common interface to both types of RDMA hardware.

For more information: iWARP, RDMA and TOE by Linux Cluster
