RoCE (RDMA over Converged Ethernet)

RoCE (RDMA over Converged Ethernet) is a technology that allows computers to share data quickly and efficiently over a standard Ethernet network. It uses Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) to let one computer access another's memory directly, bypassing traditional data transfer methods that involve the CPU and operating system. This results in lower latency, higher throughput, and reduced CPU load, making it ideal for high-performance applications like data centers, cloud computing, and real-time data processing. Essentially, RoCE enables faster and more efficient communication between servers without needing specialized hardware or complex setups.
