Abstract

See full text

An input/output module (IOM) for use within a network storage system mounted within a rack enclosure. The IOM includes a switching component configured to provide top-of-rack (TOR) switching for data to be routed from input connectors to data storage devices within the rack enclosure. The IOM also includes a protocol interface configured to convert a protocol of the data from an input data protocol (e.g., Ethernet, Fibre Channel or InfiniBand™) to a protocol for use with the storage devices (e.g., nonvolatile memory express (NVMe) and Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe)). Among other features, the IOM allows switching to be dis-aggregated from a TOR switch and distributed throughout the data network of the rack.
