Computational Storage in the Real World

March 3, 2021March 3, 2021 Eli Tiomkin

Computational storage has arrived, with real world applications meeting the goal of enabling parallel computation and/or alleviating constraints on existing compute, memory, storage, and I/O. The SNIA Computational Storage Special Interest Group has gathered examples of computational storage use cases which demonstrate improvements in application performance and infrastructure efficiency through the integration of compute resources either directly with storage or between the host and the storage. First up in the SNIA Computational Storage Demo Series are our SIG member companies Eideticom Communications and NGD Systems. Read More

Composable or Computational – Your Questions Answered!

September 24, 2020September 25, 2020 Eli Tiomkin

Our recent webcast on Composable Infrastructure and Computational Storage raised some interesting questions. No need to compose your own answers – my co-presenter Philip Kufeldt and I answer them here! You can find the entire webcast video along with the slide PDF in the SNIA Educational Library. We also invite you and your colleagues to take 10 and watch three short videos on Computational Storage topics. Q (I’m) a little confused about moving data across, for example, NVMe-oF, as it consumes DDR bandwidth. Can you elaborate? Read More
