Paper Title: NVMe/TCP Interop

Paper Abstract: The use cases for NVMe-oF continue to expand, most recently with NVMe/TCP. NVMe-oF plugfest series at UNH-IOL addressed NVMe/TCP initially in November 2018, and has followed up in June 2019. What were the lessons learned, what testing was most useful, what future work is planned? How does the testing of NVMe/TCP compare to NVMe/RoCE and NVMe/FC? These questions and others will be covered in this session.
