RDMA is increasingly adopted by cloud computing platforms to provide low CPU overhead,
low latency, high throughput network services. On the other hand, however, it is still
challenging for developers to realize fast deployment of RDMA-aware applications in the
datacenter, since the performance is highly related to many lowlevel details of RDMA
operations. To address this problem, we present a simple and scalable RDMA as Service

RDMA is increasingly adopted by cloud computing platforms to provide low CPU overhead, low latency, high throughput network services. On the other hand, however, it is still challenging for developers to realize fast deployment of RDMA-aware applications in the datacenter, since the performance is highly related to many lowlevel details of RDMA operations. To address this problem, we present a simple and scalable RDMA as Service (RaaS) to mitigate the impact of RDMA operational details. RaaS provides careful message buffer management to improve CPU/memory utilization and improve the scalability of RDMA operations. These optimized designs lead to simple and flexible programming model for common and knowledgeable users. We have implemented a prototype of RaaS, named RDMAvisor, and evaluated its performance on a cluster with a large number of connections. Our experiment results demonstrate that RDMAvisor achieves high throughput for thousand of connections and maintains low CPU and memory overhead through adaptive RDMA transport selection.
