Abstract
When we think of computational storage, we often think of offloading applications like databases. However, the SSD is an ideal location to offload the storage controller itself. For example, data reduction is must have requirement for today’s storage controllers. Offloading compression to the SSD results in data reduction at line speed. This talk will focus on this and other functions that can be offloaded to the SSD enabling lower latency, higher IOPs and making CPU MIPs available for things it does best like replication. Come listen to a well-known expert in the field of high performance speak to fundamental and essential computational storage approaches.
