That’s one heck of a diagram! So much #SDXI in this #ComputationalStorage scenario! #SDC23
This is one thing about #ComputationalStorage: there are three different potential aspects to it. I always think about drives (CSD), but the same concepts and tech apply to arrays. And accelerators and processors can be outside the drive as well. #SDC23
I'm in the #SDXI and #ComputationalStorage session at #SDC23 - wondering what this is all about? Here's an interview I did at #FMS about SDXI with the working group chair! https://gestaltit.com/tech-talk/stephen/exploring-sdxi-for-memory-to-memory-movement-and-transformation-with-shyam-iyer/
Exploring SDXI for Memory-to-Memory Movement and Transformation with Shyam Iyer - Gestalt IT

Discover the potential of the new Smart Data Acceleration Interface (SDXI) standard created by SNIA, which enables memory-to-memory data movement and transformation. Explore its impact on virtualization, computational storage, security, and more in this Gestalt IT Tech Talk from Flash Memory Summit featuring Shyam Iyer, SDXI working group chair, and Stephen Foskett. Learn how SDXI is positioned to reshape the storage landscape, with its adaptability, standardization, and potential to drive efficiency and innovation throughout the industry.

The killer app for #ComputationalStorage is overcoming LOCAL data gravity. Think about what I call “flush time” - how long it takes to dump an entire SSD. Onboard processing will always be much faster than dumping 60TB or more even over PCIe 6 or something! #SDC23
Yup! #Solidigm has a #ComputationalStorage SSD, or should I say “CSD” prototype! And it’s a D5-P5430? Yup this is a prototype using existing mass produced products! #SDC23
How can you scale performance? Just throwing more network speed won’t work. #ComputationalStorage lets you maximize performance without wasting money on network gear. #SDC23
So many use cases for #ComputationalStorage! Imagine compressing records in a database, deduplicating objects, video transcoding, encrypting records, and even #AI analysis! #SDC23
The first step towards #ComputationalStorage is to use the devices, CPUs, and accelerators that are already available. Then teach them about data structures, ensure that aggregation layers like RAID expose data properly, schedule the work, and add APIs #SDC23
I'm talking to #ScaleFlux
today about #ComputationalStorage
this morning - they're building a "better #SSD" that handles transparent compression on the drive. Look for coverage from @GestaltIT
soon!

Next Generation Computational Storage

2017 veränderte ScaleFlux mit Computational Storage die Art, wie große Datenmengen verarbeitet werden. Mittlerweile bietet der Pionier mit seiner 3000er Serie SSDs der nächsten Generation. Doch wer ist ScaleFlux überhaupt und was ist Computational Storage?
