Abstract
Aspects extend to methods, systems, and computer program products for partially reconfiguring acceleration components. Partial reconfiguration can be implemented for any of a variety of reasons, including to address an error in functionality at the acceleration component or to update functionality at the acceleration component. During partial reconfiguration, connectivity can be maintained for any other functionality at the acceleration component untouched by the partial reconfiguration. Partial reconfiguration is more efficient to deploy than full reconfiguration of an acceleration component.
