Abstract: A data storage system includes a bridging device. The bridging device is configured to receive, from a host through a network, a host data block size. A sub-block size is determined based on the host data block size. One or more storage devices are configured to include a plurality of storage sub-blocks each having the sub-block size. A first write command to write first host data including a first number of host data blocks to the one or more storage devices is received. The bridging device compresses the first host data to generate first compressed data, and write the first compressed data to a second number of storage sub-blocks of the one or more storage devices.

Abstract: An example method of exchanging data between a remote host and a target system includes receiving at least one remote descriptor from the remote host over a front-end fabric at a controller, the at least one remote descriptor specifying a remote buffer in a remote memory of the remote host that is larger than a page size. The method includes adding entries to a table that map the remote buffer to a plurality of page-sized virtual buffers in a virtual address space managed by the controller, generating local descriptors referencing the plurality of paged-sized virtual buffers, receiving a sequence of page-sized direct memory access (DMA) requests at the controller, generating a sequence remote DMA (RDMA) requests from the sequence of DMA requests based on the entries in the table, and sending the sequence of RDMA requests to the remote host over the front-end fabric.
