Abstract: A system and method for differentiated storage services with a Ethernet SSD includes receiving, at an Ethernet SSD (eSSD), an input/output (I/O) service request from a remote host via a multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) network. The I/O service request includes at least one parameter that may be used to match the I/O service request to a label switched path (LSP) based on the parameter(s). A storage traffic stream may then be opened between the eSSD and the remote host over the MPLS network according to the LSP.

Abstract: A method of low-latency direct data access to non-volatile flash memory in at least one NVMe-oF SSD device connected over Ethernet. The method includes transmitting, from a low-latency direct access (LL-DAX) block storage software layer at a host, a remote direct memory access (RDMA) write request to the flash memory. The RDMA write request includes data, a storage address, a length of a data transfer operation, and an operation code. The method also includes receiving, at the host, an RDMA level acknowledgement indicating that the data has been persisted to the flash memory. The method also includes transmitting, from the LL-DAX block storage software layer, an RDMA read request to the flash memory that includes a storage address, a length of a data transfer, and an operation code. The method also includes receiving, at the host, data packets from the flash memory corresponding to the RDMA read request.

Abstract: An Ethernet solid-state drive (Ethernet SSD or eSSD) system and corresponding method provide improved latency and throughput associated with storage functionalities. The eSSD system includes at least one primary SSD, at least one secondary SSD, an Ethernet switch, and a storage-offload engine (SoE) controller. The SoE controller may operate in a replication mode and/or an erasure-coding mode. In either mode, the SoE controller receives a first write command sent from a remote device to at least one primary SSD. In the replication mode, the SoE controller sends a second write command to the at least one secondary SSD to replicate data associated with the first write command at the at least one secondary SSD. In the erasure-coding mode, the SoE determines erasure codes associated with the first write command and manages distribution of the write data and associated erasure codes. The SoE controller may also receive read commands, data cloning commands and data movement commands from the remote device.
