Abstract

A method for accelerating data operations across a plurality of nodes of one or more clusters of a distributed computing environment. Rack awareness information characterizing the plurality of nodes is retrieved and a non-volatile memory (NVM) capability of each node is determined. A write operation is received at a management node of the plurality of nodes and one or more of the rack awareness information and the NVM capability of the plurality of nodes are analyzed to select one or more nodes to receive at least a portion of the write operation, wherein at least one of the selected nodes has an NVM capability. A multicast group for the write operation is then generated wherein the selected nodes are subscribers of the multicast group, and the multicast group is used to perform hardware accelerated read or write operations at one or more of the selected nodes.
