What is RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE)?

Previous articles walked through RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access) as a programming model and InfiniBand as the fabric that was built around it. Both led to the same conclusion, even if it was never stated outright: moving data, not compute, becomes the bottleneck once systems scale. So what happens when you want RDMA, but you’re already running an Ethernet network you’re not keen to replace? That’s usually where RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) enters the conversation.

An Architect's Guide to IPoDWDM

IPoDWDM is an architecture that integrates IP routing and Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing into a single, converged platform. This integration is achieved by placing coherent optics directly into the ports of IP routers and switches, a fundamental shift from traditional network designs. Consequently, this approach eliminates the need for a separate, dedicated layer of optical transponders and their associated shelving.
