SNIA Developer Conference September 15-17, 2025 | Santa Clara, CA
Abstract
NVMe-oF drives can support NVMe over ethernet, but how do you manage them? What are the challenges of managing multiple drives at scale? This presentation will show how Swordfish has developed a standard model for not only NVMe ethernet-attached drives, but also Ethernet-enabled enclosures (EBOFs), providing a scalable, standardized manageability solution.
This solution covers not only the specification, but detailed profiles, that provide guidance for implementations including required and recommended properties. The profiles are now part of the Swordfish CTP program; ethernet attached drives can validate conformance to the specifications by participating.
Learn about how all the pieces work together to provide an end-to-end solution for clients and vendors together.
