Devices, systems, and methods are provided for dynamically reconfiguring storage devices with applications in real-time to meet user needs, such as running different applications. The devices, systems, and methods relate to a storage device that includes memory for data storage and a controller for storing data in the memory. The controller includes a processor configured to receive an indication to reconfigure the controller with an application that is user-selected; receive the application; reconfigure the controller with the application such that the controller is enabled to run the application; receive an indication to run the application with a set of data as input; receive the set of data; run the application with the set of data as input; and generate resulting data from running the application with the set of data as input.
