Abstract
Systems, methods and apparatuses to throttle network communications for memory as a service. In one exemplary embodiment, a computing device can borrow an amount of random access memory of the lender device over a communication connection between the lender device and the computing device. The computing device can allocate virtual memory to applications running in the computing device, and configure at least a portion of the virtual memory to be hosted on the amount of memory loaned by the lender device to the computing device. The computing device can throttle data communications used by memory regions in accessing the amount of memory over the communication connection according to the criticality levels of the contents stored in the memory regions.
