    Abstract: The present application presents a Uniform Memory Access (UMA) network including a cluster of UMA nodes each having at least one UMA memory unit and a server local to the at least one UMA memory unit. A respective UMA memory unit in a respective UMA node comprises persistent memory; non-persistent memory, a node control device operatively coupled to the persistent memory and the non-persistent memory, a local interface for interfacing with the local server in the respective UMA node, and a network interface for interfacing with the UMA network. The node control device is configured to translate between a local unified memory access (UMA) address space accessible by applications running on the local server and a global UMA address space that is mapped to a physical UMA address space. The physical UMA address space includes physical address spaces associated with different UMA nodes in the cluster of UMA nodes. Thus, a server in the UMA network can access the physical address spaces at other UMA nodes without going through the servers in the other UMA nodes.

    Abstract: A system can include a host computer system and a host system bus coupled to the host computer system. One or more storage devices can be coupled to the host system bus and configured to store data. Additionally, a computational storage device (CSD) can be coupled to the host system bus and configured to receive a data write request comprising data from the host computer system. The CSD can further include a memory and an application processor. The application processor of the CSD can be configured to write the data of the data write request to the one or more storage devices in response to receiving the data write request.
