With Amazon S3 celebrating its sixteenth birthday this year, it's easy to forget just how revolutionary it was at its release. S3's buckets and objects were profoundly different from the directories and files that developers had been manipulating through filesystem APIs. What drove this innovation, and how does cloud object storage actually work?

To wrap up the DNA Data Storage track, Dave Landsman, along with session presenters and others from the DNA Data Storage Alliance, will host an open and informal Q&A. The notion of DNA data storage is still very new to those not having been in the emerging field over the last decade, and we will answer all your questions to help make it more real.

The next generation of automobiles moves to the adoption of PCIe for data communications in vehicles, and the JEDEC Automotive SSD solution enables a high performance, high reliability solution for this shared centralized storage. Features such as SR/IOV highlight the requirements of these computers on wheels with multiple SoC functions for vehicle control, sensors, communications, entertainment, and artificial intelligence.

NVMe over TCP has emerged to provide a more powerful, and compute resource friendly NVMe-oF technology deployment option. Not only does NVMe over TCP help with lower deployment costs and reducing design complexity, it also enables higher performance with lower latency. In essence, NVMe over TCP extends NVMe across the entire data center (from on-prem core to edge to cloud) using the simple, standard, and efficient well known TCP/IP fabric networks. This panel explores the challenges, issues, and benefits of addressing NVMe over TCP deployments without compromise.

Adding Support for VFIO Live Migration

This Birds-of-a-Feather will provide an interactive followup to the Wednesday afternoon SDC presentation on addressing capacity and cost challenges for Oracle workloads using software memory tiering applications like those from VMware. We will discuss how CXL and PCIe can play a role, and talk about real world use cases in enterprise and cloud environments. Bring your questions and ideas!
