NVMe over TCP

Time for NVMe®/TCP

NVMe® was designed for high-performance direct-attached PCIe SSDs and was later expanded with NVMe® over Fabrics (NVMe-oF™) to support a hyperscale remote pool of SSDs. The industry has widely accepted that this new NVMe-oF™ model will replace Direct-Attached Storage (DAS) and become the default protocol for disaggregated storage in cloud infrastructure.

Ubiquitous standard for storage disaggregation

NVMe®/TCP is the most powerful NVMe-oF™ technology, providing high performance with reduced deployment costs and design complexity. It extends NVMe® across the entire data center using simple and efficient TCP/IP fabric.
