Title: Sockets Direct Protocol (SDP) for iWARP over TCP
State: Active
Authors: James Pinkerton
Group: Individual Submissions (none)
Date: 2004-08-30
SDP is a byte-stream transport protocol that closely mimics TCP's stream
semantics. SDP utilizes iWARP's advanced protocol offload, kernel bypass,
and zero copy capabilities. Because of this, SDP can have lower CPU and
memory bandwidth utilization when compared to conventional implementations
of sockets over TCP, while preserving the familiar byte-stream oriented
semantics upon which most current network applications depend.
