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!
CXL and Persistent Memory
Emerging workloads such as artificial intelligence, machine learning and deep learning demand new solutions. New ways to attach persistent memory are being developed. Join the chairs of the SNIA Persistent Memory Special Interest Group and SDC speakers including Andy Rudoff of Intel in this live session to ask your questions on Persistent Memory and CXL developments and where the next generation of these technologies are headed.
Future Innovations in Software Defined Flash Storage
The data center of today is almost fully software defined, from the software defined network (SDN) to virtualized and containerized computation to the software defined file system (SDFS). But there’s one important part of the stack that’s not yet software defined: flash storage itself. It’s about time to enable flash storage to be software defined, allowing flash to be tailored to the specific needs of any application. This session will center on what software defined flash capabilities are needed by storage developers and how software defined flash APIs could affect how storage applications are written and run in the future.
Security Landscape
Security, unlike most technologies, is driven by changes to the threat landscape as well as the legal/regulatory responses. This BoF provides a forum to explore recent and anticipated developments. It may also serve as a forum to further explore details from the various SDC security and data protection sessions.
"No-compromise” NVMe/TCP deployment using server storage I/O offload
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.
