Recently, SSDs supporting the NVMe protocol have become supported in servers and storage systems. NVMe SSDs installed in servers and storage enable direct access to CPUs via PCI-express, achieving high storage performance by achieving connections with lower latency than SSDs such as SATA and SAS. To do. This NVMe SSD can demonstrate high performance when connected to the CPU in a server or storage via PCI-express. The network between devices became a bottleneck, and the performance of the NVMe SSD could not be fully exploited.
The NVMesh software provided by Excelero supports RDDA (Remote Direct Drive Access) that eliminates this bottleneck in the network. It achieves the same level of performance as SSD. It also realizes a scalable and flexible block storage fabric optimized for NVMe, making it possible to build storage systems using general-purpose IA servers.
