Reflections on Computational Storage

As a year we will never forget drew to a close, SNIA on Storage sat down (virtually of course!) with Computational Storage Technical Work Group Co-Chairs Jason Molgaard of Arm and Scott Shadley of NGD Systems and Computational Storage Special Interest Group Chair Eli Tiomkin of NGD Systems to take the pulse of 2020 and anticipate 2021 computational storage advances.

SNIA On Storage (SOS): Jason, Scott, and Eli, thanks for taking the time to chat. Where was computational storage 12 months ago and how did it progress in 2020?

Dive into Computational Storage at Storage Developer Conference 2018 – A Chat with SNIA Technical Council Co-Chair Mark Carlson

An update from SNIA on Storage:  Computational Storage was definitely the “buzz” at SDC! Session slides can now be downloaded.  The BoF attracted over 50 attendees, and a F2F meeting (and WebEx) is set for October 11 at the SNIA Technology Center in Colorado Springs.  Go to snia.org/computational to sign up for the meeting to plan the mission and charter for the SNIA Computational Storage Technical Work Group.  All SNIA and non-SNIA members are welcome to participate in this phase of the TWG.

The SNIA Storage Developer Conference (SDC) is running September 24-27, 2018 at the Hyatt Regency Santa Clara CA.   Registration is open, and the agenda is live!

SNIA On Storage is teaming up with the SNIA Technical Council to dive into major themes of the 2018 conference.  The SNIA Technical Council takes a leadership role to develop the content for each SDC, so SNIA on Storage spoke with Mark Carlson, SNIA Technical Council Co-Chair and Principal Engineer, Industry Standards, Toshiba Memory America, to understand why SDC is bringing Computational Storage to conference attendees.

SNIA On Storage (SOS): Just in the last few weeks, there’s been a tremendous buzz about “computational storage”. Is this a new kid on the block? Read More
