Disaggregated Storage using OPI and Marvell Octeon DPUs (Video)
Nov 30, 2023 |
A prominent trend in disaggregated storage is the use of Non-Volatile Memory Express over Fabric (NVME-oF) and in particular, NVMe over TCP to connect storage devices over a network. But there is no straightforward to provide this storage to Virtual machines and containers. The hypervisor will still need to emulate…
An Introduction to the OPI Project (Video)
Nov 21, 2023 |
The Open Programmable Infrastructure Project is an open-source effort within the Linux Foundation to develop a standard API for utilizing SmartNICs, DPUs and IPUs, and other coprocessors or processing elements. It will allow users to provision and orchestrate all devices in the same way, thus allowing them to handle many…
