15. A computer system comprising the following: one or more computer system processors; system memory; a local data store; and one or more computer storage media having stored thereon computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more computer system processors, cause the computing system to perform a method for providing a management interface for initializing the local data store, the method comprising the following: an act of instantiating a management interface that is configured to initialize a local persistent data store; an act of receiving an input indicating one or more settings that are to be applied when initializing the local persistent data store, wherein at least one of the settings identifies how the local persistent data store is to be partitioned; an act of partitioning the local persistent data store into one or more partitions that are each accessible using the management interface; and an act of initializing the partitioned local persistent data store as a local RDMA endpoint using the management interface, wherein the local RDMA endpoint includes extended RDMA semantics that provide direct access to the local persistent data store, wherein the direct access bypasses the one or more computer system processors, and further wherein the extended RDMA semantics including RDMA ordering semantics that allow at least one of out-of-order processing or out-of-order completions for local persistent data store data read or write operations performed on the local data store.

The computer system of claim 15 , wherein the management interface allows a user to configure user access settings for each partition.
