Abstract
A server includes at least one local memory and communicates with one or more network devices that provide an external shared memory. A kernel space of the server is used to monitor memory usage by different applications executed by the server. A memory kernel module adjusts usage of the at least one local memory and the external shared memory by the different applications based at least in part on the monitored memory usage. In another aspect, a memory access profiling server receives memory information and application usage information added to packets sent between servers and one or more memory devices. The memory access profiling server analyzes the memory information and application usage information to determine memory placement information that is sent to at least one server to adjust usage of the external shared memory.
