== RDMA over TCP/IP == |
One example of this might be the use of a server with a hardware-equipped RDMA to serve a large number of clients with software-emulated RDMA implementations. |

Line 5:
An alternate proposal is RDMA over [[TCP/IP]], in which the TCP/IP protocol is used to move the data over a commodity data networking technology such as [[Gigabit Ethernet]]. Unlike conventional TCP/IP implementations, the RDMA implementation would have its TCP/IP stack implemented on the network adapter card, which would thus act as a [[I/O processor]], taking up the load of RDMA processing.
This also has the advantage that software-based RDMA emulation will be possible, allowing interoperation between systems with dedicated RDMA hardware and those without. One example of this might be the use of a server with a hardware-equipped RDMA to serve a large number of clients with software-emulated RDMA implementations.
