Future of Memory and Storage - Day 1 @ 09:50

GPU Direct Access to Storage SCADA

This presentation discusses the impact of NVIDIA’s Storage Next (SCADA) workloads on SSDs.  We compare CPU vs GPU initiated I/O and how it influences future drive design.  Storage Next uses SSDs as an expansion for GPU memory using SSDs allowing for processing of larger datasets.  GPUs leverage tens of thousands of threads to potentially queue tens of thousands requests to the storage submitting thousands of random requests (read or writes) to each SSD.  GPU based applications must also adapt to maximize I/O concurrency for best performance.

Future of Memory and Storage - Day 2 @ 10:20

Protecting Large Capacity Drives

We take a technical view of strategies for protecting large capacity SSDs and maximizing their usable lifespan.  Large capacity SSDs may soon approach Petabyte capacity.  This presentation looks at managing die failures with Depopulation and overall protection strategies. We compare HDD Depopulation with failed platters representing a contiguous LBA space to SSD and FTL where a die failure may be scattered across an LBA range.  Depopulation is a standard and used with HDDs. We explore SSD recovery methods looking for a sensible way to Depopulate portions of an SSD. Recovery aspects include reduced time to full protection and smaller depopulations.
