Paper Title: Fabrics/NVMe-oF's Storage's New Magic Wand

Paper Abstract: In our presentation titled Fabrics/NVMe-oF's Storage's New Magic-Wand, we would cover: 1. Fabrics/NVMe-oF Current Trends 2. Real Life Project Insights 3. 2020 Predictions (and NOT too farsighted) 1. Fabrics/NVMe-oF Current Trends o Software Defined Storage accelerating the adoption rate of NVMes o Market witnessing significant growth in Ethernet-based storage networking o Cloud workloads embracing NVMe-oF o Facilitation of development of flash memory at a grander scale, aiding in storing and operating gigantic sets of data 2. Real Life Project Insights o Data center agility and resilience (enterprises) insights by benchmarking performances for NVMe-oF o Validation testing benchmarks for NVMe-oF based Flash Array 3. 2020 Predictions (and NOT too farsighted) o Vendors would offer the choice of fabric technology to customers o The promising rise of the NVMe over Fibre Channel (FC-NVMe) o FC-NVMe will the preferred choice to address increasing downtimes during the interoperability testing
