Abstract
The NVMe® over Fabrics (NVMe-oF™) specification was created to enable non-volatile memory express (NVMe) commands that transfer data between a host and SSD or storage subsystem, to be completed over a networked fabric1. It accomplishes this by defining extensions to the NVMe interface that enable operation over a fabric other than PCI Express (PCIe) including:
- Fibre Channel
- RMDA (InfiniBand, RoCE, iWARP), and
- TCP
