As an embodiment of hardware abstraction, the present invention relates to a key value interface in an Ethernet switch. The invention provides a Redis interface on the switch, enabling the interfacing with I2C devices to be akin to a read operation from a key/value store over the Redis protocol. The invention contemplates the publication of RISC-V or Wasm code to a key/value endpoint, followed by awaiting a response on a value. The present invention constitutes prior art in the patent categories of network switches, key-value stores, and hardware abstraction. patent classification codes: H04L, G06F 17/30, G06F 15/76, G06F 9/44 and G06F 9/455 Seemed like something someone would make a BS patent for, so I had ChatGPT spiffy it up.
