A distributed data processing system executes multiple tasks within a parallel job, including a first local task on a local node and at least one task executing on a remote node, with a remote memory having real address (RA) locations mapped to one or more of the source effective addresses (EA) and destination EA of a data move operation initiated by a task executing on the local node. On initiation of the data move operation, remote asynchronous data move (RADM) logic identifies that the operation moves data to/from a first EA that is memory mapped to an RA of the remote memory. The local processor/RADM logic initiates a RADM operation that moves a copy of the data directly from/to the first remote memory by completing the RADM operation using the network interface cards (NICs) of the source and destination processing nodes, determined by accessing a data center for the node IDs of remote memory.
