  • Patent number: 10785295
    Abstract: Fabric encapsulated resilient storage is hardware-assisted resilient storage in which the reliability capabilities of a storage server are abstracted and managed transparently by a host fabric interface (HFI) to a switch. The switch abstracts the reliability capabilities of a storage server into a level of resilience in a hierarchy of levels of resilience. The resilience levels are accessible by clients as a quantifiable characteristic of the storage server. The resilience levels are used by the switch fabric to filter which storage servers store objects responsive to client requests to store objects at a specified level of resilience.

  • Publication number: 20200228630
    Abstract: A persistence service for edge architected computing systems extends current storage and memory schemes of edge resources to expose interfaces to allow an endpoint, such as an IoT device or client device, to specify criteria for achieving persistence for data stored in an edge resource. The persistence interface extends the storage and memory controllers to store data in accordance with the criteria, including determining whether a local or remote edge resource is best able to store data persistently in a manner that satisfies the criteria. The criteria include a persistence service level agreement, including a required time to persistence, cost of persistence and reliability level of persistence. Only edge resources that contain media, including storage subsystems and/or memory, capable of storing data persistently while satisfying the criteria will be permitted to service the request.

    Abstract: Technologies for managing errors in a remotely accessible memory pool include a memory sled. The memory sled includes a memory pool having one or more byte-addressable memory devices and a memory pool controller coupled to the memory pool. The memory sled is to write test data to a byte-addressable memory region in the memory pool. The memory region is to be accessed by a remote compute sled. The memory sled is also to read data from the memory region to which the test data was written, compare the read data to the test data to determine whether a threshold number of errors are present in the read data, and send, in response to a determination that the threshold number of errors are present in the read data, a notification to the remote compute sled that the memory region is faulty.
