Abstract
Hardware transactions or other techniques, such as custom PCIe handling devices, are used to atomically move pages from one host's memory to another host's memory. The hosts are connected by one or two non-transparent bridges (NTBs), which make each host's memory and devices available to the other, while allowing each host to reboot independently.
