Abstract
Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed that reduce latency and bandwidth consumption when sharing memory across a distributed coherent Edge computing system. The distributed coherent Edge computing system disclosed herein configures a compute express link (CXL) endpoint to share data between memories across an Edge platform. The CXL endpoint configures coherent memory domain(s) of memory addresses, which are initialized from an Edge device connected to the Edge platform. The CXL endpoint also configures coherency rule(s) for the coherent memory domain(s). The CXL endpoint is implemented to snoop the Edge platform in response to read and write requests from the Edge device. The CXL endpoint selectively snoops memory addresses within the coherent memory domain(s) that are defined as coherent based on the coherency rule(s).
