Abstract: Techniques for computer power management are disclosed. In one embodiment, a data center includes several compute nodes and a power management node. Power telemetry data is gathered at each of the compute nodes and sent to the power management node. The power management node analyzes the telemetry data, such as by applying filtering to identify certain metrics. The power management node may use rules to analyze the telemetry data and determine whether power management actions should be performed. The power management node may instruct the compute node to, e.g., change a power state of a processor or processor core. In some embodiments, cores may be managed by an orchestrator, and the orchestrator may identify cores to be placed in high-power and low-power states, as appropriate.

Abstract: Examples described herein relate to a device configured to allocate memory resources for packets received by the network interface based on received configuration settings. In some examples, the device is a network interface. Received configuration settings can include one or more of: latency, memory bandwidth, timing of when the content is expected to be accessed, or encryption parameters. In some examples, memory resources include one or more of: a cache, a volatile memory device, a storage device, or persistent memory. In some examples, based on a configuration settings not being available, the network interface is to perform one or more of: dropping a received packet, store the received packet in a buffer that does not meet the configuration settings, or indicate an error. In some examples, configuration settings are conditional where the settings are applied if one or more conditions is met.

Abstract: Technologies for accelerated key caching in an edge hierarchy include multiple edge appliance devices organized in tiers. An edge appliance device receives a request for a key, such as a private key. The edge appliance device determines whether the key is included in a local key cache and, if not, requests the key from an edge appliance device included in an inner tier of the edge hierarchy. The edge appliance device may request the key from an edge appliance device included in a peer tier of the edge hierarchy. The edge appliance device may activate per-tenant accelerated logic to identify one or more keys in the key cache for eviction. The edge appliance device may activate per-tenant accelerated logic to identify one or more keys for pre-fetching. Those functions of the edge appliance device may be performed by an accelerator such as an FPGA. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
