What happened to the NVMe-oF specification?
The NVMe-oF specification has been absorbed into the NVMe 2.0 library of specifications. It has become a part of the Base specification, TCP/IP specification and RDMA specification. Read More
What NVMe technology features are for enterprise storage?
ANA. No disruptive failover of storage paths is essential for enterprise storage. It ensures that if there’s a failure in a path the access to the storage will not be disrupted but a switchover will non-disruptively overcome this issue. Enterprise Storage needs to be available all the time. Read More
Is NVMe technology only for Enterprise applications?
No, but enhancements have been made to make NVMe technology more robust and more fault tolerant for Enterprise applications. Read More
What NVMe technology features are for data centers?
NVMe technology has become the go-to storage protocol solution for today’s data centers which were lacking full support previously. The addition of NVMe-oF technology makes NVMe solutions easier to implement than ever across the data center ecosystem. The NVMe-oF protocol allows optimal performance for both applications and the network when… Read More
Why is NVMe architecture good for the data center?
The NVMe specification is scalable, open, and flexible for the needs of the data center. NVMe end-to-end solutions can reduce response time thereby making Enterprise Apps more responsive and increase workload performance. Read More
What does NVMe technology mean for emerging markets like ML/AI, IoT, etc.?
As these applications like ML/AI benefit tremendously from low latency and performance, NVMe technology will decrease responses/outcomes making it possible to check more sources and get better outcomes. Read More
What NVMe technology features are for consumers/client (desktop, laptop, mobile)?
There are many features in NVMe technology for consumers, like format/secure erase/sanitize, power states, thermal management, SMART, namespace write protect, and more. Read More
What markets benefit from adopting NVM Express technology?
NVMe technology is higher performance, more scalable, lower latency, and has much more innovation than the incumbent technologies. All the markets that NVMe architecture supports will have benefit from adopting the technology. Read More
What market segments is NVMe technology targeted at?
NVMe technology is targeted at SSDs in the client, mobile, desktop, workstation, server, hyperscale, enterprise, storage segments (all SSD segments). NVMe capable servers and systems are part of the NVMe market, as well as NVMe-oF networking adapters, all-flash arrays, and many other NVMe capable products. NVMe architecture is now much… Read More
What is the difference between in-band and out of band support?
In-band means sending commands in an operating system through a standard NVMe driver and commands, while out-of-band means outside of the operating system knowledge, most commonly done with a host BMC through the SMBUS protocol, but now can be done over PCIe vendor defined messages as well.
