NVME-301-1: PCIe/NVMe Technology Update (NVMe Track)
Paper Title: Offloading the NVMe SSD Datapath to Intelligent Controllers

Paper Abstract: One problem with incorporating the latest NVMe SSDs into storage systems is that they put tremendous pressure on CPU resources. Designers must either slow down data transfers or replace the CPU with an expensive higher-powered device. An alternative is to offload protocol management, error-checking, and other overhead tasks to low-cost SoC controllers (typically using inexpensive ARM processors). These CPUs are task-oriented with unique software implementations. Not only can such additions lower overall costs, but they also increase scalability, performance, improve network utilization, and increase system useful lifetimes.
