    Abstract: According to some example embodiments, a method for providing security to a storage device includes receiving, by the storage device, a public key via a network; sending, by the storage device, the received public key and a proposed configuration corresponding to the storage device to a security manager that resides in a control plane of the network; determining, by the security manager, whether the public key received from the storage device matches a private key available to the security manager; downloading, by the security manager, the proposed configuration to the storage device; determining, by the security manager, if the proposed configuration is successfully downloaded to the storage device; operating the storage device according to the downloaded configuration; and granting, by the security manager, a request to lease the storage device operating in the downloaded configuration for a time interval.

    Abstract: A system and method for using a Solid State Drive (SSD) (505) are described. Reception circuitry (510) may receive write requests (1610, 1615, 1620, 1625) and invalidate requests (1630, 1635, 1640) from a first stream (305, 320, 335, 350). The write requests (1610, 1615, 1620, 1625) may request that data be written to storage (520) on the SSD (505); invalidate requests (1630, 1635, 1640) may invalidate data written to the storage (520). A statistics calculation logic (1705) may calculate statistics (1410, 1415, 1510) for the stream based on the write requests (1610, 1615, 1620, 1625) and the invalidate requests (1630, 1635, 1640). A performance logic (1710) may use the calculated statistics (1410, 1415, 1510) to improve the performance of the SSD (505).
