Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods to implement an object memory fabric. Object memory modules may include object storage storing memory objects, memory object meta-data, and a memory module object directory. Each memory object and/or memory object portion may be created natively within the object memory module and may be a managed at a memory layer. The memory module object directory may index all memory objects and/or portions within the object memory module. A hierarchy of object routers may communicatively couple the object memory modules. Each object router may maintain an object cache state for the memory objects and/or portions contained in object memory modules below the object router in the hierarchy. The hierarchy, based on the object cache state, may behave in aggregate as a single object directory communicatively coupled to all object memory modules and to process requests based on the object cache state.
