ABSTRACT:
A method for buffering variable length data at a decoupler includes receiving, at a decoupler, a request to queue variable length data from a producer, with the decoupler comprising a management header and a buffer pool. One of a plurality of fixed-length segments in the buffer pool is dynamically selected based, at least in part, on the management header. Buffer space in the selected segment is automatically allocated based on the request and the allocated space is then populated with the variable length data.
