Techniques for sending Compute Express Link (CXL) packets over Ethernet (CXL-E) in a composable data center that may include disaggregated, composable servers. The techniques may include receiving, from a first server device, a request to bind the first server device with a multiple logical device (MLD) appliance. Based at least in part on the request, a first CXL-E connection may be established for the first server device to export a computing resource to the MLD appliance. The techniques may also include receiving, from the MLD appliance, an indication that the computing resource is available, and receiving, from a second server device, a second request for the computing resource. Based at least in part on the second request, a second CXL-E connection may be established for the second server device to consume or otherwise utilize the computing resource of the first server device via the MLD appliance.

A distributed storage volume online migration method, system, and apparatus, and a computer-readable storage medium, include: obtaining a metadata object that stores metadata of an original volume; creating a metadata context handle and a data context handle in a target storage pool corresponding to a migration instruction; storing the metadata object to the metadata context handle; storing, to a target volume, an original volume information field in the metadata object; sequentially copying data objects in the original volume to the target volume; and recording an Identifier (ID) of a completely copied data object in the target volume.

A system includes: a terminal that is capable of executing a plurality of programs; and a target apparatus that is capable of communicating with the terminal. The target apparatus includes: an acceptance unit that receives a specific operation; and a transmission unit that transmits trigger information to the terminal upon the acceptance unit receiving the specific operation. The terminal includes: a receiving unit that receives the trigger information from the transmission unit; a selection unit that selects a program corresponding to the target apparatus from the plurality of programs upon the receiving unit receiving the trigger information; and a processing unit that performs processing corresponding to the selected program.

A data storage management system is enhanced to accommodate, and moreover to optimize, the storing and retention of deduplicated secondary copies at write-once read-many (WORM) enabled storage platforms. Enhancements include without limitation: user interface (UI) options to enable WORM functionality for secondary storage, whether used for deduplicated or non-deduplicated secondary copies; enhancements to secondary copy (e.g., deduplication copy, backup) operations; and pruning changes. The storage manager is generally responsible for managing the creation, tracking, and deletion of secondary copies, with and without deduplication. Media agents that store secondary copies to and prune them from the WORM-enabled storage platforms also are enhanced for communicating and interoperating with both bucket-level and object-level WORM-enabled storage platforms to implement the features disclosed herein.

A computational storage processor (CSP) is provided that includes the CSP comprising a plurality of submission queues (SQs), a plurality of computational storage functions (CSFs), a CSF controller, and a CSP controller, and a method of controlling the CSP is provided that includes directing a first submission queue entry (SQE) that is written to a first one of the plurality of SQs to the CSF controller, generating, by the CSF controller, one or more secondary SQEs based on the first SQE, each of the one or more secondary SQEs is directed to a respective one of the CSFs, writing, by the CSF controller, the one or more secondary SQEs to a second one of the plurality of SQs, directing each of the one or more secondary SQEs to an associated respective one of the CSFs, and for each of the one or more secondary SQEs, performing, by the associated respective one of the CSFs, an operation associated with the secondary SQE.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method and a device of managing input/output of a storage device. The storage device at least includes a first I/O port and a second I/O port. The method comprises receiving a first I/O request for the storage device, and determining a type of the first I/O request. Based on the type of the first I/O request, the first I/O request is dispatched to the first I/O port or the second I/O port. If the first I/O request is a read request, the first I/O request may be dispatched to the first I/O port, and if the first I/O request is determined as a write request, the first I/O request may be dispatched to the second I/O port. The method may reuse at least one of the first I/O port or the second I/O port.

A system and method is disclosed for fast secure destruction or erasure of data in a non-volatile memory. The method may include identifying a fast erase condition, such as an unauthorized access attempt, and then applying a fast erase process to a predetermined number of blocks of the non-volatile memory. The fast erase process may be implemented by applying an erase voltage for less than a full duration needed to place the blocks in a full erase state, but sufficient to make any data in those blocks unreadable. The system may include a non-volatile memory having a plurality of blocks and a controller configured to sequentially apply the erase voltage to a predetermined portion of the blocks for less than a time needed to fully erase those blocks such that the controller may rapidly make data unreadable without taking the full time to completely erase those blocks.

A Tenant-Aware Storage-Sharing Engine (TASTE) (225) is described. The TASTE (225) may include storage (510) for information about a set of available storage devices (705, 710) at a data center (105). A reception logic 505) may receive storage device requirements (415) from a tenant (145, 230). Selection logic (515) may then select a subset of the available storage devices (705, 710) that satisfies the storage device requirements 415) of the tenant (145, 230).
