Technologies for providing shared memory for accelerator sleds includes an accelerator sled to receive, with a memory controller, a memory access request from an accelerator device to access a region of memory. The request is to identify the region of memory with a logical address. Additionally, the accelerator sled is to determine from a map of logical addresses and associated physical address, the physical address associated with the region of memory. In addition, the accelerator sled is to route the memory access request to a memory device associated with the determined physical address.

The communication circuitry is capable of switching network traffic of multiple link layer protocols. Additionally, the network switch includes one or more memory devices storing instructions that, when executed, cause the network switch to receive, with the communication circuitry through an optical connection, network traffic to be forwarded, and determine a link layer protocol of the received network traffic. The instructions additionally cause the network switch to forward the network traffic as a function of the determined link layer protocol. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

Technologies for dynamic accelerator selection include a compute sled. The compute sled includes a network interface controller to communicate with a remote accelerator of an accelerator sled over a network, where the network interface controller includes a local accelerator and a compute engine. The compute engine is to obtain network telemetry data indicative of a level of bandwidth saturation of the network. The compute engine is also to determine whether to accelerate a function managed by the compute sled. The compute engine is further to determine, in response to a determination to accelerate the function, whether to offload the function to the remote accelerator of the accelerator sled based on the telemetry data. Also the compute engine is to assign, in response a determination not to offload the function to the remote accelerator, the function to the local accelerator of the network interface controller.
