Abstract
Methods and systems for managing storage of data in a distributed system are disclosed. To manage storage of data in a distributed system, a data processing system may include a network interface controller (NIC). The NIC may present emulated storages that may be used for data storage. The emulated storage devices may be implemented with a storage pipeline that uses any number of storage devices that may be local or remote to the data processing system. The computing resources of the data processing system may view the emulated storage as a local device. The NIC may use its storage pipeline to service its own storage needs. By doing so, the NIC may improve the likelihood that its hosted applications have sufficient storage service access.
