Zusammenfassung:A system is disclosed that comprises a field programmable gate array (FPGA), a network interface, and a plurality of hardware templates. The FPGA comprises configurable hardware logic, and the hardware templates define a plurality of different pipelined processing operations. The FPGA can be accessible over a network via the network interface for commanding the FPGA to load a hardware template from among the hardware templates onto the FPGA to thereby configure hardware logic on the FPGA to perform the pipelined processing operation defined by the loaded hardware template, and wherein the FPGA is configured to (1) receive streaming data and (2) process the streaming data through the configured hardware logic to perform the pipelined processing operation defined by the loaded hardware template on the streaming data.
