    Abstract: One embodiment provides a network adapter. The network adapter includes a network adapter controller, a medium access controller (MAC) and a physical layer (PHY) including at least one port. The network adapter further includes optical communication logic to at least one of receive and/or acquire a local alert and generate a local alert message related to the local alert, the local alert message including an alert identifier (ID) and a network adapter ID. The network adapter further includes a first light emitting diode (LED) to convert the local alert message to a corresponding optical local alert message and to transmit the optical local alert message to an optical communication path.

    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and computer platforms and architectures employing many-to-many and many-to-one peripheral switches. The methods and apparatus may be implemented on computer platforms having multiple nodes, such as those employing a Non-uniform Memory Access (NUMA) architecture, wherein each node comprises a plurality of components including a processor having at least one level of memory cache and being operatively coupled to system memory and operatively coupled to a many-to-many peripheral switch that includes a plurality of downstream ports to which NICs and/or peripheral expansion slots are operatively coupled, or a many-to-one switch that enables a peripheral device to be shared by multiple nodes. During operation, packets are received at the NICs and DMA memory writes are initiated using memory write transactions identifying a destination memory address. The many-to-many and many-to-one peripheral switches forwards the transaction packets internally within the switch based on the destination address such that the packets are forwarded to a node via which the memory address can be accessed. The platform architectures may also be configured to support migration operations in response to failure or replacement of a node.

    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed to facilitate network interface device based edge computing. A disclosed example includes threshold analyzer circuitry to identify a resource inactivity threshold for first a resource associated with the network interface device, the resource inactivity threshold indicative of a duration of time that the first resource is not utilized; resource allocator circuitry to determine that the resource meets the resource inactivity threshold; and virtual platform manager circuitry to generate a virtual platform associated with the network interface device based on the determination, the generated virtual platform to reduce latency in execution of a function.

    Abstract: Technologies for applying a redundancy encoding scheme to segmented portions of a data block include an endpoint computing device communicatively coupled to a destination computing device. The endpoint computing device is configured to divide a block of data into a plurality of data segments as a function of a transmit window size and a redundancy encoding scheme, and generate redundant data usable to reconstruct each of the plurality of data segments. The endpoint computing device is additionally configured to format a series of network packets that each includes a data segment of the plurality of data segments and generated redundant data for at least one other data segment of the plurality of data segments. Further, the endpoint computing device is configured to transport each of the series of network packets to a destination computing device. Other embodiments are described herein.

    Abstract: Technologies for buffering received network packet data include a compute device with a network interface controller (NIC) configured to determine a packet size of a network packet received by the NIC and identify a preferred buffer size between a small buffer and a large buffer. The NIC is further configured to select, from the descriptor, a buffer pointer based on the preferred buffer size, wherein the buffer pointer comprises one of a small buffer pointer corresponding to a first physical address in memory allocated to the small buffer or a large buffer pointer corresponding to a second physical address in memory allocated to the large buffer. Additionally, the NIC is configured to store at least a portion of the network packet in the memory based on the selected buffer pointer. Other embodiments are described herein.
