NVMe® SSD Classification White Paper

A new NVMe® SSD Classification White Paper is now available to accompany the NVMe SSD Classification table. The white paper describes how NVMe SSDs are used in enterprise servers, enterprise storage, data center/hyperscale servers, and data center/hyperscale storage environments with details on how NVMe SSDs better address the needs of servers and storage with distinct requirements and application environments.

SNIA Joint Technical Development Work in the Spotlight

What makes an enterprise system more efficient, flexible and cost effective? If you answered “seamless standards-based open source management,” you are correct!

SNIA and DMTF are working with the OpenFabrics Alliance to provide IT administrators the ability to add seamless standards-based management of their fabrics and networks to the same SNIA Swordfish and DMTF Redfish® ecosystem they are using for their storage and server management. This joint technical development work is planned to be spotlighted at several industry conferences in the coming months, including:

Upcoming Webcasts
Extending Storage to the Edge - How It Should Affect Your Storage Strategy
August 25, 2021

Erin Farr, IBM; Vincent Hsu, IBM; Jim Fister, The Decision Place
 
Data gravity has pulled computing to the Edge and enabled significant advances in hybrid cloud deployments. The ability to run analytics from the datacenter to the Edge, where the data is generated and lives, also creates new use cases. However, this movement of compute to the Edge is not the only pattern to have emerged. How might these other use cases impact your storage strategy? This interactive webcast will focus on:
  • Emerging patterns of data movement and the use cases that drive them
  • Cloud Bursting
  • Federated Learning across the Edge and Hybrid Cloud
  • Considerations for distributed cloud storage architectures to match these emerging patterns
Moving Genomics to the Cloud: Compute and Storage Considerations
September 9, 2021
Michael McManus, Intel; Christopher Davidson, HPE; Torben Kling Petersen, HPE; Alex McDonald, SNIA Cloud Storage Technologies Initiative Chair
 
The study of genomics in modern biology has revolutionized the discovery of medicines and the COVID pandemic response has quickened genetic research and driven the rapid development of vaccines. Genomics, however, requires a significant amount of compute power and data storage to make new discoveries possible.
 
This session will feature expert viewpoints from both bioinformatics and technology perspectives with a focus on some of the compute and data storage challenges for genomics workflows, including:
  • How to best store and manage large genomics datasets
  • Methods for sharing large datasets for collaborative analysis
  • Legal and ethical implications of storing shareable data in the cloud
  • Transferring large data sets and the impact on storage and networking
