Examples described herein relate to a network interface device that includes circuitry to decide packet format of a packet including data to be transmitted based on network utilized to transmit the packet and circuitry to form the packet based on the decided packet format. In some examples, the network utilized to transmit the packet is based on an egress port of the packet. In some examples, the network utilized to transmit the packet comprises one or more of: direct interconnect, small scale-up network, or large scale-out network. In some examples, to decide packet format, the circuitry is to form the packet byte by byte to reduce overhead caused by preamble and number of header fields.
