Managing Ethernet-Attached Drives using Swordfish
NVMe-oF drives can support NVMe over ethernet, but how do you manage them? This presentation will show how Swordfish has developed a standard model for NVMe ethernet-attached drives, providing detailed profiles as 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.
NVMe
Hear from the experts on the latest from NVMe including implementation experiences.
Data Processing Units (DPUs)
The SNIA Technical Council believes that it is important for storage developers to learn about the emerging technology of Data Processing Units (DPUs). We have gathered a panel of leading DPU vendors to provide an overview and answer the following questions.
- What is a DPU?
- Why might storage developers want to adopt DPUs in their products or services?
- What tools and libraries do you provide for developers?
- Which parts are open source?
- What development languages are supported?
Following the panel presentations, we will open the floor to questions from the participants. Don’t miss this great opportunity to learn more about DPUs!

Data Processing Units (DPUs)
The SNIA Technical Council believes that it is important for storage developers to learn about the emerging technology of Data Processing Units (DPUs). We have created a task force to provide an overview and answer the following questions. What is a DPU? Why might storage developers want to adopt DPUs in their products or services? What tools and libraries do you provide for developers? Which parts are open source? What development languages are supported? Following the panel presentations, we will open the floor to questions from the participants. Don’t miss this great opportunity to learn more about DPUs!
