Training Overview

The OpenFabrics Alliance (OFA) training materials provide instructive information on how to program using the verbs API to take advantage of Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA).

The OFA training program comprises three presentations and a suite of code examples. You can download the presentations and examples separately (the examples are packaged in a zip file), or download the entire set of files in a single zip file.

The OFA invested in the development of these materials to facilitate the mastering of coding techniques and concepts that are required in RDMA. The materials are free for your use under the license terms, which you must acknowledge to access the materials. The terms are also shown in the training documents.
