Disaggregated Storage Using OPI and Marvell Octeon DPUs - Storage Developer Conference 2023

Explore a 32-minute technical conference talk from the Storage Developer Conference 2023 that delves into disaggregated storage solutions using OPI and Marvell Octeon DPUs. Learn about the emerging trend of NVMe over Fabric (NVMe-oF) and NVMe over TCP for networked storage connectivity, while understanding the challenges of providing this storage to virtual machines and containers. Discover how Marvell Octeon DPUs enable local NVMe to remote NVMeOF storage offload, allowing NVMe devices to appear as local PCIe controllers for VMs and containers without host processor involvement. Examine the role of DPUs and IPUs in modern datacenter infrastructure, particularly for on-premises, hybrid, and bare metal deployments. Understand how Marvell's collaboration with OPI (Open Programmable Infrastructure) project enhances Octeon DPUs' NVMe storage infrastructure offload capabilities. Master key concepts including trends in NVMe storage offload in DPUs, OPI Storage offload infrastructure, and the differences between NVMeOF storage offload and NVMe local storage through this presentation by Satananda Burla from Marvell.
