The SNAP Framework enables programmers and computer engineers to quickly create FPGA-based acceleration actions that work on server host data, as well as data from storage, flash, Ethernet, or other connected resources. SNAP, therefore, is an acronym for “Storage, Network, and Analytics Programming”. The SNAP framework makes it easy to create accelerated actions utilizing the IBM Coherent Accelerator Processor Interface (CAPI).
