Many server storage and I/O problems are often the result of host CPU and associated software bottlenecks. This panel explores the challenges, issues, and benefits of addressing NVMe over TCP deployments without compromise. The session will explore server, storage and I/O workload testing techniques, tools, methodology and approaches to show NVMe over Fabrics including TCP can be accelerated, while freeing up host CPU resources for other software defined workloads. With a continued shift towards software defined storage, networks and higher level applications, host CPU cycles are in more demand. Boosting application performance, efficiency, and effectiveness of server CPUs including reducing overhead are key priorities for legacy and software defined datacenter environments.
