NVMe Cross Connect - NVMe Switchless Architecture NVMe Cross Connect Overview: Solution: NVMe Cross Connects NVMe Cross Connects provide a very High Speed, low latency, Switchless NVMe Fabric Cross Connect network Connection that runs at 2 Microseconds. This Switchless NVMe Cross Connect fabric provides Direct Multi-Channel Fibre Cross Connects with supporting connection grids in Hyperconverged Nodes, Storage Arrays, NAS Storage, and Software Defined Storage NVMe Cross Connect for Hyper Converged Cluster - Switchless Storage Architecture ? Separate Storage Connectivity Between Nodes ? Number of Nodes that can be cross connected:8 Across Racks in separate Fault and Upgrade Domains ? Hyper Converged Storage Connectivity ? Redundant NVMe Storage Cross Connect for continuity ? Mediums supported: Fibre ? Rate of Transmission: 10/20/50/200GBs ? Direct NVMe Cross Connectivity Across Hyper Converged Servers ? Latency Between Node: 2 Microseconds ? Cache for Data Throughput: 1TB Flash Memory ? RDMA for Cross Connect Connectivity with Processor Utilization Reduction ? Cross connect come in Connection Blocks that provide switch like Connectivity that provide direct node to node ? Cross Connect 512GB Cache to support high speeds across cross connects NVMe Cross Connect for Storage Array - Switchless Architecture ? NVMe Cross connect for direct Array to Array for connectivity without a Switch ? Storage Array Clustering through cross connect connectivity between arrays ? 1 to 4 Arrays connected through a cross connect Routing Architecture ? Redundant NVMe Storage Cross Connect for continuity ? Cross Connect across Racks without a Switch ? Medium: Fibre ? Rate of Transmission: 10/20/50/200GBs ? Cache for Data Throughput: 1TB Flash Memory ? Direct NVMe Cross Connectivity Across Storage Clusters ? Latency Between Node: 2 Microseconds ? RDMA for Cross Connect Connectivity to provide Processor Utilization Reduction ? Cross connect come in Connection Blocks that provide switch like Connectivity ? Switchless Architecture to provide faster direct connectivity between NVMe Cross Connected nodes Cross Connect Network Channel Architecture - Switchless NVMe Cross Connect Fabric ? Same Channel Architecture for Storage Arrays - Network Attached Storage - Software Defined Storage - Hyper Converged Storage Nodes ? No Switch connecting any nodes of arrays. All connectivity to the nodes happen through the connected Fibre Cross Connect Channels ? 10 BASE T Like Channel Architecture except in this example Fibre running at speeds 10/20/50/100/200GB throughput. No Ethernet Design ? Spoke Connections plug direction into the main Cross Connect channels ? Every Storage Node will Be able to Connect through its channel connected into Primary Fibre Cross Connect channels ? If there are 4 nodes cross connected and connection 2 dies there would still be connectivity to all other Nodes within the cluster that are directly tied into the primary Fibre Cross Connect Channel and Grid ? Connection 2 in the example can either have the connected node swapped out or NVMe Cross Connect Channel interconnects swapped out in there are problems or upgrades without affecting the Cluster ? NVMe Cross Connect Grids - Contain all of the ports and fibre connection within node and to and from the Primary Cross Connect Channel ? Switchless Architecture to provide faster direct connectivity between NVMe Cross Connected nodes Cross Connect Replacement ? Options for Biometric Authentication at the Rack to access, manage, upgrade the cross connect Grids ? Hot Swappable Cross Connects from the Connection Grid for failure Remediation or Upgrade Universal Standard for all Storage Array and Hyper Converged Solutions Special Fibre Optic medium with Plug and Play Connections into the Primary Fibre cable grid of connections
