Abstract: A data system includes a plurality of storage drives each comprising a multi-lane serial drive interface. The data system also includes a control system configured to receive, over a host link, a write operation for storage of data, process a storage address of the write operation against storage allocation information to apportion the data for storage among more than one target storage drive, and transfer corresponding portions of the data to the target storage drives.

Abstract: Disaggregated computing architectures, platforms, and systems are provided herein. In one example, a method of operating compute units is presented that includes forming compute units among a plurality of physical computing components coupled over a Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) fabric configured to communicatively couple the plurality of physical computing components and isolate the compute unit using logical partitioning within the PCIe fabric. The method also includes initiating a software component deployed to at least associated CPUs within the compute units, reporting telemetry to the management processor related to operation of the compute unit, and emulating operation of at least one among an Ethernet and InfiniB and interface to an operating system of the associated CPU for transfer of communications comprising at least the telemetry to the management processor over the PCIe fabric.

Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and architectures for storage interposers are provided herein. In one example, an apparatus includes a host connector configured to couple to one or more host systems over associated host Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) interfaces, and PCIe switch circuitry configured to receive storage operations over the host connector that are issued by the one or more host systems. The PCIe switch circuitry is configured to monitor when ones of the storage operations correspond to an address range and responsively indicate the ones of the storage operations to a control module. The control module is configured to selectively direct delivery of the ones of the storage operations to corresponding storage areas among one or more storage devices based at least on addressing information monitored for the ones of the storage operations in the PCIe switch circuitry.

Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and software for data storage systems are provided herein. In one example, a data storage platform includes data storage assemblies each comprising one or more storage drives that service data storage operations over associated storage interfaces. A control processor is coupled to ones of the data storage assemblies over at least two types of sideband communication interfaces different than the storage interfaces of the storage drives. During an initialization process for the one or more storage drives, the control processor configured to transfer initialization data to each of the data storage assemblies over a first type of sideband communication interface and transfer further initialization data to at least one of the data storage assemblies over a second type of sideband communication interface when the at least one of the data storage assemblies does not respond to the initialization data over the first type of sideband communication interface.
