Identifying the problem with current SSDs is simple. SSDs were forced to conform to the legacy of spinning media, in every fashion, as they gained acceptance. A glaring problem is the interface; SSDs ...

NVMe drives have paved the way for computing at stellar speeds, but the technology didn't suddenly appear overnight. It was through an evolutionary process that we now rely on the very performant SSD ...

This repository contains the artifacts / results for my masters thesis: "Characterizing The Energy Contribution and Energy-Performance Trade-offs of NVMe SSDs in the Linux Storage Stack". The artifact ...

Replacing hard disk drives with NAND flash-based solid state drives (SSDs) dramatically improved I/O performance, even over top of the line 15,000 RPM enterprise drives. Access times dropped from 6-12 ...

The Linux storage stack serves as a prime example of meticulously coordinated layers. Embark on a journey through the kernel code with Architecture and Design of the Linux Storage Stack, crafted for ...

Among the emerging themes for 2019 in the datacenter, one of them is that NVM-Express is finding its place in the storage hierarchy. NVM-Express started out as an important interconnect inside of ...

Nvme-stas documentation mentions that it is a Central Discovery Controller (CDC) client for Linux. Can it be used as a CDC service where multiple hosts and targets can be discovered and zoned? Can ...

Abstract: This paper proposes FERMAT, a versatile FPGA-accelerated near-storage computing platform that aims at significantly reducing data latency and energy consumption for data-intensive ...
