Abstract: A system includes a fabric switch including a motherboard, a baseboard management controller (BMC), a network switch configured to transport network signals, and a PCIe switch configured to transport PCIe signals; a midplane; and a plurality of device ports. Each of the plurality of device ports is configured to connect a storage device to the motherboard of the fabric switch over the midplane and carry the network signals and the PCIe signals over the midplane. The storage device is configurable in multiple modes based a protocol established over a fabric connection between the system and the storage device.

Abstract: A topology is disclosed. The topology may include at least one Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) Solid State Drive (SSD), a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) to implement one or more functions supporting the NVMe SSD, such as data acceleration, data deduplication, data integrity, data encryption, and data compression, and a Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) switch. The PCIe switch may communicate with both the FPGA and the NVMe SSD.

Abstract: A system is disclosed. The system may include a processor running an application program and a memory storing data being used by the application program. An upstream port enables communication with the processor; a downstream port enables communication with a storage device. The system may also include an acceleration module implemented using hardware and including an Acceleration Platform Manager (APM-F) to execute an acceleration instruction. The storage device may include an endpoint of the storage device for communicating with the acceleration module, a controller to manage operations of the storage device, storage for application data for the application program, and a storage device Acceleration Platform Manager (APM-S) to assist the APM-F in executing the acceleration instruction. A downstream filter associated with the downstream port may intercept an acceleration instruction associated with a downstream Filter Address Range (FAR) received from the storage device and deliver the acceleration instruction to the APM-F, the acceleration instruction being. The processor, the acceleration module, and the storage device may communicate via a Peripheral Component Interconnect Exchange (PCIe) bus. The acceleration module may support performing the acceleration instruction on the application data on the storage device for the application program without loading the application data into the memory.

Abstract: A rack-mountable data storage system includes: a chassis including one or more switchboards; a midplane interfacing with the one or more switchboards; and one or more data storage devices removably coupled to the midplane using a connector. At least one data storage device of the one or more data storage devices include a logic device to interface with the midplane. The logic device provides a device-specific interface of a corresponding data storage device with the midplane. The at least one data storage device is configured using the logic device according to a first protocol based on a signal on a pin of the connector, and the at least one data storage device is reconfigurable according to a second protocol based on a change of the signal on the pin of the connector using the logic device.

Abstract: Embodiments of the inventive concept include solid state drive (SSD) multi-card adapters that can include multiple solid state drive cards, which can be incorporated into existing enterprise servers without major architectural changes, thereby enabling the server industry ecosystem to easily integrate evolving solid state drive technologies into servers. The SSD multi-card adapters can include an interface section between various solid state drive cards and drive connector types. The interface section can perform protocol translation, packet switching and routing, data encryption, data compression, management information aggregation, virtualization, and other functions.
