See full text

A process includes an application layer of a host of a computer platform using a smart network interface card (NIC) of the computer platform to provide an input/output (I/O) service for the application layer. The I/O service includes a service that is associated with a cloud operator domain; the smart NIC is installed in a connector; and the application layers associated with a cloud tenant domain. The process includes a baseboard management controller of the smart NIC managing the computer platform. Managing the computer platform includes the baseboard management controller managing the host; the baseboard management controller managing components of the smart NIC other than the baseboard management controller; and managing the host includes the baseboard management controller communicating with the host via the connector to control a system power state of the computer platform.
