Abstract
In certain implementations, a method includes receiving, by a network interface controller (NIC), a request for inter-process communication associated with a sending process of a distributed application. The request includes a logical network address for a destination process of the distributed application. The method includes executing, by the NIC, a network address translation process to translate the logical network address for the destination process to a translated network address for the destination process. The network address translation process includes executing, using a first portion of the logical network address, a lookup of a network address translation table to determine a first address; determining a translation modifier by executing a translation algorithm using a second portion of the logical network address; and determining the translated network address using the first address and the translation modifier. The method includes processing, by the NIC, a first message using the translated network address.
