Abstract: Systems and methods for monitoring and steering service requests to acceleration components are provided. An example method in a system comprising a host configured to send messages, corresponding to a service, to any of a set of acceleration components may include tracking an input buffer occupancy corresponding to each of the set of acceleration components. The method may further include, upon a first input buffer occupancy of a first acceleration component from among the set of the acceleration components meeting a predetermined criterion, generating a first penalty value for the first acceleration component based at least on the first input buffer occupancy associated with the first acceleration component, and comparing a second value indicative of an availability of the second acceleration component to receive messages from the host to a second dynamically updated value to determine whether the host can send a next message to the second acceleration component.

Abstract: Systems and methods for flow control and congestion management of messages among acceleration components (ACs) configurable to accelerate a service are provided. An example system comprises a software plane including host components configured to execute instructions corresponding to a service and an acceleration plane including ACs configurable to accelerate the service. In a first mode a sending AC is configured to, in response to receiving a first indication from a receiving AC, send subsequent packets corresponding to a first message associated with the service using a larger inter-packet gap than an inter-packet gap used for previous packets corresponding to the first message associated with the service, and in the second mode the sending AC is configured to, in response to receiving a second indication from the receiving AC, delay a transmission of a next packet corresponding to the first message associated with the service.

Abstract: Components, methods, and systems allowing acceleration components to transmit messages are provided. An acceleration component for use among a first plurality of acceleration components, associated with a first top-of-rack (TOR) switch, to transmit messages to other acceleration components in an acceleration plane configurable to provide service acceleration for a service is provided. The acceleration component includes a transport component configured to transmit a first point-to-point message to a second acceleration component, associated with a second TOR switch different form the first TOR switch, and to a third acceleration component, associated with a third TOR switch different from the first TOR switch and the second TOR switch. The transport component may be configured to broadcast a second point-to-point message to all of a second plurality of acceleration components associated with the second TOR switch and to all of a third plurality of acceleration components associated with the third TOR switch.
