Abstract

Techniques involve obtaining, at a first network interface card coupled with a first device, information related to a plurality of data blocks to be written to a second device, the information including sizes of the plurality of data blocks and a plurality of destination addresses in a memory of the second device where the plurality of data blocks will be written. The techniques further involve generating a write request for the plurality of data blocks based on the information, the write request indicating at least the plurality of destination addresses and the sizes of the plurality of data blocks. The techniques further involve sending the write request to a second network interface card coupled with the second device, so that the plurality of data blocks are written to the plurality of destination addresses. Such techniques reduce the number of communications thus improving system performance and reducing hardware resource consumption.
