Abstract

An approach is described that accesses data in a shared memory that is shared amongst nodes that include a local node and remote nodes. The local node receives a name corresponding to a named data element in a Coordination Namespace, the Coordination Namespace having been created in a memory distributed amongst the nodes. A hash function is applied to at least a portion of the name with a result of the hash function being a natural node indicator. Data corresponding to the named data element is requested from a natural node identified by the indicator. Based on the request, a response is received from the natural node.
