The Storage Performance Development Kit (SPDK) provides a set of tools and libraries for writing high performance, scalable, user-mode storage applications. It's an ideal open source software framework for building IPU/DPU based storage solutions including initiators, targets and local SSD virtualization. This presentation talks about recent SPDK enhancements for IPU/DPU support, how SPDK is used to enable IPU/DPU based storage solutions, and the potential of SPDK to help drive toward standard based IPU/DPU storage solutions.
