Data in a Flash, Part IV: the Future of Memory Technologies

I have spent the first three parts of this series describing the evolution and current state of Flash storage. I also described how to configure an NVMe over Fabric (NVMeoF) storage network to export NVMe volumes across RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) and again over native TCP.

Data in a Flash, Part III: NVMe over Fabrics Using TCP

A remote NVMe block device exported via an NVMe over Fabrics network using TCP.

Data in a Flash, Part II: Using NVMe Drives and Creating an NVMe over Fabrics Network

By design, NVMe drives are intended to provide local access to the machines they are plugged in to; however, the NVMe over Fabric specification seeks to address this very limitation by enabling remote network access to that same device.

Data in a Flash, Part I: the Evolution of Disk Storage and an Introduction to NVMe

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 for our primary storage tier.

JMR SiloStor NVMe SSD Drives

Compute-intensive workflows are the environments in which the newly developed JMR SiloStor NVMe family of SSD drives is designed to show its colors.

NVMe over Fabrics Support Coming to the Linux 4.8 Kernel

The Flash Memory Summit recently wrapped up its conferences in Santa Clara, California, and only one type of Flash technology stole the show: NVMe over Fabrics (NVMeF). From the many presentations and company announcements, it was obvious NVMeF was the topic that most interested the attendees.
