ChungAndrew PutnamHari AngepatJeremy FowersMichael HaselmanStephen HeilMatt HumphreyPuneet KaurJoo-Young KimDaniel LoTodd MassengillKalin OvtcharovMichael PapamichaelLisa WoodsSitaram LankaDerek ChiouDoug BurgerMicrosoft CorporationAbstract Hyperscale datacenter providers have struggled tobalance the growing need for specialized hardware (efficiency)with the economic benefits of homogeneity (manageability). Inthis paper we propose a new cloud Architecture that usesreconfigurable logic to accelerate both network plane func-tions and applications. This Configurable cloud architectureplaces a layer of reconfigurable logic (FPGAs) between thenetwork switches and the servers, enabling network flows to beprogrammably transformed at line rate, enabling accelerationof local applications running on the server, and enabling theFPGAs to communicate directly, at data
The fabric was a limited-scale “bolt on” accelerator, which could accelerate applications but offered little for enhancing the datacenter infrastructure, such as networking and storage flows. In this paper, we describe a new cloud-scale, FPGA-based acceleration architecture, which we call the Configurable
