Examples described herein relate to a switch comprising a programmable data plane pipeline, wherein the programmable data plane pipeline is configured to provide microservice-to-microservice communications within a service mesh. In some examples, to provide microservice-to-microservice communications within a service mesh, the programmable data plane pipeline is to perform a forwarding operation for a communication from a first microservice to a second microservice. In some examples, to perform a forwarding operation for a communication from a first microservice to a second microservice, the programmable data plane pipeline is to utilize a reliable transport protocol.

Service mesh offload to network devices

Examples described herein relate to offload reliable transport management to a network interface device and store packets to be resent, based on received packet receipt acknowledgements (ACKs), into one or more kernel space queues that are also accessible in user space.

Reliable transport offloaded to network devices

In some examples, for process-to-process communication, such as in function linking, a virtual channel can be provisioned to provide virtual machine to virtual machine communications. In response to a transmit request from a source virtual machine, the virtual channel can cause a data copy from a source buffer associated with the source virtual machine without decryption or encryption. The virtual channel provisions a key identifier for the copied data. The destination virtual machine can receive an indication data is available and can cause the data to be decrypted using a key accessed using the key identifier and source address of the copied data. In addition, the data can be encrypted using a second, different key for storage in a destination buffer associated with the destination virtual machine. In some examples, the key identifier and source address is managed by the virtual channel and is not visible to virtual machine or hypervisor.

Methods and apparatus for secure networking protocol optimization via NIC hardware offloading. Under a method, security offload entries are cached in a flow table or a security database offload table on a network interface coupled to a host that implements a host security database mapping flows to Security Association (SA) contexts. Each security offload entry includes information identify a flow and information, such as an offset value, to locate a corresponding entry for the flow in the host security database. Hardware descriptors for received packets that belong to flows with matching security offload entries are generated and marked with the information used to locate the corresponding entries in the host security database. The hardware descriptors are processed by software on the host and the location information is used to de-reference the location of applicable entries in the host security database.

Embodiments include apparatuses, methods, and systems including one or more servers and one or more storage devices, coupled with each other, to provide virtual storage service to store a file and meta data of the file for a client computing device. The file and the meta data of the file may be encrypted by the client computing device before providing to the virtual storage service. The file may be encrypted with a secret key of the client computing device, and the meta data of the file may be encrypted with a shared session key between the client computing device and the virtual storage service. The encrypted file may be stored in the one or more storage devices, and the encrypted meta data of the file may be stored in one or more secured areas of the one or more servers. Other embodiments may also be described and claimed.

Virtual storage services for client computing devices

Examples described herein relate to a reliable transport protocol for packet transmission using an Address Family of an eXpress Data Path (AF_XDP) queue framework, wherein the AF_XDP queue framework is to provide a queue for received packet receipt acknowledgements (ACKs). In some examples, an AF_XDP socket is to connect a service with a driver for the network device, one or more queues are associated with the AF_XDP socket, and at least one of the one or more queues comprises a waiting queue for received packet receipt ACKs. In some examples, at least one of the one or more queues is to identify one or more packets for which ACKs have been received. In some examples, the network device is to re-transmit a packet identified by a descriptor in the waiting queue based on non-receipt of an ACK associated with the packet from a receiver.

There is disclosed in an example, an endpoint apparatus for an interconnect, comprising: a mechanical and electrical interface to the interconnect; and one or more logic elements comprising an interface vector engine to: receive a first scalar transaction for the interface; determine that the first scalar transaction meets a criterion for vectorization; receive a second scalar transaction for the interface; determine that the second transaction meets the criterion for vectorization; vectorize the first scalar transaction and second scalar transaction into a vector transaction; and send the vector transaction via the electrical interface.
