You've heard of lots of kinds of storage solutions, from external hard drives to a NAS. However, what you may not have heard of was NVMe over TCP, a way to use the NVMe protocol over a network.

How will NVMe flash affect storage area networking, in particular with the introduction of NVMe-over-fabrics? Storage area networks (SANs) and shared storage have been in the enterprise datacentre for ...

While NVMe has brought super-fast flash storage access speeds to storage media, NVMe-over-fabrics extends it to wider deployments in the datacentre. NVMe-over-fabrics, which is in the nascent stages ...

Soon after data centers began transitioning from hard drives to solid-state drives (SSD), the NVMe protocol arrived to support high-performance, direct-attached PCIe SSDs. NVMe was followed by NVMe ...

Replacing hard disk drives with NAND flash-based solid state drives (SSDs) dramatically improved I/O performance, even over top of the line 15,000 RPM enterprise drives. Access times dropped from 6-12 ...

NVMe (non-volatile memory express) is shaking up the enterprise storage industry. A communications protocol developed specifically for all-flash storage, NVMe enables faster performance and greater ...

Our previous post on NVMe was an overview of the NVMe protocol. We will now start looking closer at the VIP-proper, looking initially at the NVMe Host Protocol layers. This will provide an ...

The history of storage devices is quite literally a race between the medium and the computing power as the bottleneck of preserving billions of ones and zeros stands in the way of computing nirvana.

“The NVMe Management Interface is an important part of delivering a robust solid-state drive solution for Datacenter environments,” said Amber Huffman, President of NVM Express, Inc. “Protocol tools ...
