Welcome to the Fundamentals of RDMA Programming Course!
Remote Direct Memory Access, RDMA, enables server-to-server data movement directly between application memory without any CPU involvement.
RDMA technology empowers advanced enterprise data centers and the world’s fastest supercomputers (HPC).
RDMA allows real CPU offloads and kernel bypass, and, as such, RDMA-based applications provide better utilization of network HW resources while increasing speed and lowering link latencies.
