Abstract: A network infrastructure device (e.g., network switch), that integrates solid-state drive (SSD) storage, using Non-volatile Memory Express (NVMe) data transfer protocol, for use by remote application hosts is provided. High availability configurations of network switches using direct rate control (RC) feedback for a plurality of submission queues mapped to SSD storage is provided. NVMe over fabric (NVMe-oF) is an implementation of NVMe protocol over a network fabric.

In some implementations, direct RC feedback signals use hardware based signals. In some implementations, direct RC feedback signals are implemented in the hardware logic (silicon chip logic) within an internal switch fabric of the network switch.

Abstract: A map-reduce compatible distributed file system that consists of successive component layers that each provide the basis on which the next layer is built provides transactional read-write-update semantics with file chunk replication and huge file-create rates.

A container location database allows containers to be found among all file servers, as well as defining precedence among replicas of containers to organize transactional updates of container contents. Volumes facilitate control of data placement, creation of snapshots and mirrors, and retention of a variety of control and policy information. Also addressed is the use of distributed transactions in a map-reduce system; the use of local and distributed snapshots; replication, including techniques for reconciling the divergence of replicated data after a crash; and mirroring.
